Emily Trick: Found and Imagined

Emily Trick seeks to “…explore conflicts and tensions between physical and intangible” in her Found and Imagined exhibit at the Sinclair Art Galleries. The impact of her figures is striking. Cast human features create a point of reference for your eyes and mind to take hold of. As your eyes work upward from the plaster feet and follow the explosion of wood and foam in “Framed” one begins to build more questions about its purpose. Perplexing ideas of aesthetics, the human condition, and creative motivation continue in two more of her imagined figures. Her objects act as another point of reference and allow one to find some comfort in the familiar, while not losing the train of questioning established by the loose figures.
