Unraveling

Unraveling

For six weeks, artists Jolynn Santiago and Andy Lowrie will use the BJC gallery as a temporary studio space to create an exhibition that will unfold like a conversation for viewers to witness. Jolynn and Andy share a love of dust and tape, and both utilize mark making, enameling and metalsmithing in their respective practices. They find common ground in drawing and are attracted to how materials break down and wear away. They prefer a methodology of reacting and responding rather than preemptive planning, driven by the process of making and the curiosity inherent in making. Unraveling will not be about a finished product but about challenging what a finished product can be and how an audience comes to see and understand the work of the artist, making visible the ways art and objects come into existence. The exhibition will show how we think through making, recording, reflecting and communicating, and how relationships influence the outcomes of collaborative work.

Exhibition dates: April 1 - May 14, 2022

Closing reception: Friday, May 6, 2022 from 5 -8 pm.

Andy and Jolynn will be in the gallery Friday, Saturday, and Sunday during open hours from April 1 - May 6.
