Opening Reception

Curated by Letha Wilson

Andrew Kuo’s works on paper layer cut-out forms and silk-screened imagery to describe new, abstract locations. Specific architectural details taken from such sources as Venetian palaces and iron fences are combined with patterns derived from interior details as well as natural forms and remote landscapes. The found imagery is brought from the digital realm into the manual, as Kuo individually hand-cuts and prints his pieces.

A long piece of paper covered with muted pastel and black areas of color stretches horizontally along two walls in the corner of a gallery space. Vinyl text installed to the right of the paper scroll reads: "Andrew Kuo / YOU ARE THE EVERYTHING AND THE EVERYTHING IS IN YOU."
