In Bloom
In Bloom, curated by Margriet Vollenberg, presents the works of five Dutch designers and is realized in close partnership with Market Art + Design, the East End's premier modern and contemporary art fair.The works give – each in their own remarkable way – a glimpse of the flourishing design culture landscape in the Netherlands. Not only through the astonishing appearance of the pieces, but also in the use of natural materials, references and elements. In Bloom presents the latest developments at the forefront of contemporary Dutch design.
Facture Studio
A partnership between designer Quincy Ellis and artist Shoba Seric, Facture Studio uses the medium of resin to explore the mystery, whimsy and interplay of light and matter. Engaging and enigmatic, Facture’s Shift Collection vacillates between opacity and transparency, revealing and obscuring form, color, and energy. Though rendered in matter, the pieces are never truly at rest, drawing the eye to shape, contour and illusion.
The dynamism of the Shift Collection springs from the shared ingenuity and artistry of Ellis and Seric. Ellis, born and raised in Philadelphia, studied industrial design at the Rhode Island School of Design from 2005-2009. He moved to NYC in 2009 to pursue art fabrication, working with some of the most well known artists and galleries. From 2013-2017 he was studio manager / engineer and lead fabricator for the artist/designer Fernando Mastrangelo. Seric hails from Sarejevo and studied at the School of Applied Arts from 1983-1987, then Sarajevo Academy of Fine Arts from 1989 - 1992. In 1999 he moved to Amsterdam to attend Rijksakademie, an international two-year artist residency and studio program. Shoba's art has been exhibited in museums and art spaces worldwide. He's been working in NYC since 2001, making his own art and fabricating for some of the most well known designers and artists in the world.
McKay Otto | Pivot
Presented by Red Arrow Gallery
McKay Otto (b. Wharton, Texas) has a BBA from The University of Texas in Austin, he also studied art and art history at the Glassell School located at the Museum of Fine Art in Houston. Otto was mentored by and received an informal art education through renowned contemporary minimalist painter, Agnes Martin.
As Otto always regards his paintings as meditations, he intends his work to be experienced rather than read. Dealing with the themes of light, translucence, simplicity and silence, his work combines the quiet concentration of meditation with a focused intensity, which he often describes as “Trans-dimensional.” Otto has exhibited his work extensively in gallery and museum exhibitions across the Texas metropolitan areas of Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio, as well as in NYC, Chicago, Denver, New Orleans, and Aspen. Otto presently lives and works in his studio near Wimberley, Texas.
