Tracing the Evidence

Dylan’s Welch show was incredible. Her work is mesmerizing
in the since that she work seems so spacious and calming. The artist statement
does that, “I want to amplify what I experience as true in my daily life: that
the world around me is real, tangible, predictable, yet simultaneously
infinitely mysterious. Science is capable of building incredible knowledge
about the cosmos by observing nature to determine relatable patterns.” Her work
does reflect the mysterious of the cosmos and patterns.

As shown in Circle
Space, she uses the coolness of the blue to really give a feel of space and
looking out in space. Then she uses perspectives to give depth of field on a
two- dimensional plane. It gives me a since of wonder and the feeling of there
is something more in the picture, but there’s not.

Audium in the Morning
is another that gives another since of space. It also looks like a 20-sided di.
It almost feels like you are rolling a di to see where it lands on a mysterious
mat that represents space.

| Nesting III Paint, collage, spray paint on wood panel |
Another piece of work that really intrigues me is the Nesting III. Nesting
III is interesting because it reminds me of a prism when light is shines
through dividing the colors that make up white light. It reminds me because she
used a pyramid like shape and the rainbow on the bottom in the middle.
All of these works have geometric shapes and the feeling of
perspectives. This is the science part of her statement. Dylan is using objects
found in Math and Science to give us a since of wonder and space. These objects
feel inorganic compared to other works of art that we have seen, such as the
movement of realism.
