David Benjamin Sherry "Form Forming Formation" Exhibition Recap

OHWOW recently opened a solo presentation of David Benjamin Sherry’s recent work that studies concepts of geometry, science, color, materiality and the course of change. This exhibition, titled “Form Forming Formation,” includes both traditional color prints and photographic collage work. Through the artist’s analog approach to producing images, he examines aspects of arrangement and the visual results of alchemical and light analysis. With his photographically-based constructions (Solar System In Blood System, 2011), Sherry explores specified geometric formations based on the mathematical design of our planet and solar system. Also referencing the crop circle phenomenon, these rectilinear configurations aim to address the varied changes Earth undergoes. The work also serves to chronicle this moment in history, and to raise awareness of the natural world around us through a visual combination of minimal form and complex pattern. “Form Forming Formation” runs through May 27, 2011.
