'EXPRESSTANEOUSMOMENTERIALISM' -The direct, spontaneous intervention of creative force upon the infinite elements of moment and material
Austin Emery’s first solo exhibition will be showing a selection of sculpture and painting which reflect his passion for creating work spontaneously and directly.
Austin’s work involves a physical, mental, emotional and soulful exploration of moment and material. Seeking equilibrium, he frees his mind of conscious thought and finds resonance with any material, spontaneously and expressively.
Having worked for many years as an architectural stone carver, confined to the forms of the ornamental details commissioned, Austin’s art practice has developed in response to this confinement, to expand beyond the restrictions such work imposes on him. He lives through his work with an open mind, allowing his experience of time to intervene with the materials he encounters and express through his skilled hands.
Austin’s journey has led him to ‘Blobbism’. This is expression through blob; an exploration of amorphous, irregular form, created spontaneously and freely (with open interpretation and without preconception) flirting with the boundary between abstract and figurative.
Now, as an extension of Blobbism, Austin brings us Expresstaneousmomenterialism, broadening this concept and defining the moment of blissful equilibrium when one’s infinite creative energy finds itself dancing in harmony with the materials of our world.
