Spaysky Fine Art Gallery LLC is pleased to present “INJURED?” a show by collaborators Braden Baer and Benjamin Kenjiro Saginaw.
Consisting of two members from Hamtramck Ceramck, this show presents new works emerging from the artists’ ongoing history of collaboration.
Central to the exhibition is a series of glaze paintings. Painted on bisque-fired ceramic slabs, the images are a mixture of glaze and underglaze—materials that are often unpredictable and can look different than their finished color when first applied, only revealing themselves after being fired. Through a mixture of technical experience and an embrace of the unpredictable, the images depicted in the paintings are imbued with uncanny qualities, blurring the lines between intent and chance, as well as between image and object.
Like a sculpture of a painting, the slabs are held in frames against the wall, resembling works on canvas while revealing their objectness upon closer inspection.
Accompanying the glaze paintings are sculptural and audio elements that allude to the artists’ history of working together and their interactions with other cultural institutions, setting a tone for the space and creating an environment through which to experience the work.
The exhibition will open on Saturday, March 21st, with a reception held from 6–9 PM, and will be on view through April 25th by appointment or during open hours, Saturdays 1–6 PM with additional open hours March 25th, 26th and 27th 1-6 PM during nceca.
