Cirrus (fibratus), 2006

Description

Tavares Strachan’s first comprehensive exhibition of four major works will take place concurrently at the Feldman Gallery in Manhattan and Pierogi Gallery in Brooklyn.The exhibition also includes light box photographs of the cloud formations at various stages. Since the water and silica dust are from New York City, the photographs represent New York City cloud formations. Strachan’s work, related to the displacement of physical space and its impact upon perception, touches on many issues – environmental, geographic, cultural, and historical. Themes of presence and distance, and the importance of preservation, relate to the artist’s life experience of cross-cultural clash.
