“Breaking Out” by Tory Cowles (virtual)

“I use an abstract expressionist process, responding directly to the materials in a stream of consciousness state of mind, allowing the work to evolve without a conceptual overlay. I’m interested in how the connotations evoked by the materials become an integral part of the work. For example, the materials from our organic farm - roofing, chain link fencing, and chicken wire - evoke for me the weather, growing things, time passing, my childhood. I’m still playing with color, shape, movement and texture, but the connotations, and sometimes the juxtaposition of connotations, add another important dimension to the piece.”
