Gallery 1261 and guest curator, artist Mia Bergeron, are proud to
present Unfurl. Comprised of 25 invited artists, including gallery
artists as well as guests, from the US and Europe, "Unfurl" draws on
the idea of true creative freedom. Selected artists have been asked to
create works of art that are created without boundaries. Many of these
artists will be working in different media, themes, scale, and subjects
than what they have become known for creating. The objective of
"Unfurl" is to host not only an exhibit that stretches the limits of
what each artist is capable of manifesting, but also to invite
collectors to view a potentially untold and private part of these
artists' creativity.

Given the urgent timeline for this painting, I gave myself constraints:
Work with a nice frame I already had, and use fast drying paints
(alkyds). Throughout the process I would prop the unfinished painting
in the frame to make sure the whole piece would be unified. I used both
knife and brush.

My two young children gave me all the inspiration I needed for this
special experimental piece. The concept came to me gradually over the
course of several early-morning excursions.
If you are in the Denver area, check out Unfurl on the 21st! Amazing
lineup.
