Project Description
Day & Night Projects presents “Bone of my Bone, Flesh of my Flesh, Heart of my Heart: The Figure in Contemporary Art.” The exhibition runs from February 8– March 9, 2024, with an opening reception on Thursday, Feb. 8, 7–10pm, that is free and open to the public. The human form is our jump-off point into an exploration of creative style. Selected by Co-Director William Downs, this collection of artists from Atlanta and beyond will let their unique perspective tell the tale through photography, drawing, painting, and sculpture. With all the ways that artists can represent a human being, what makes one turn to oil paint or clay? How does humor illuminate the human condition? Does pathos need to be rendered realistically? How does a singular image portray the multitudes of a person? How does an artist’s method speak to their inner truth? Confirmed artists include: Jaime Bull, Ariel Dannielle, Danae Antoine, Trey Dowell, Sean Fahie, Kyle Ford, Jill Frank, Lewinale Havette, Michael Jones, Maria Korol, Tim Short, Skyler Simpson, Tori Tinsley, Jasmine Nicole Williams
