Istoria / An Installation by Jay Walker

 

Dates: January 10th - March 2nd 2013

Hours: Wednesday- Saturday 12 - 6pm

Second Thursday Receptions: January 10th and February 14th 6 - 9pm

Location: The Big Hall

 

This installation will be constructed entirely of tape, laser cut vinyl, contact paper and veneers, then layered, shaped and formed to create the imagery throughout the Hall space along three sections. The installation is centered around Theotokos, by definition meaning Mother of God, typically used in the Eastern Orthodox Church as a title of the Virgin Mary. Walker traditionally has created this series on wood panels. This exhibition is his exploration into using walls as his surface of choice. Walker explains, “When people interact with this series I hear a multiplicity of identifications, all representing different cultures and ages, from druids to Buddhist monks to burqas to crusaders to Mary to Star Wars.”
