CATALOG

Excerpt from catalog by curator Debra Scacco:

Works by Galia Linn address universal elements: water, oxygen, fire, earth. The organic clay forms are simultaneously ancient relics and contemporary guardians: objects of ritual continually reinforcing the relationship between our bodies and the earth…

Placed on gallery grounds, the circular installation of six works forms a ritual dance as light dappling through the canopy of trees continually animates the vessels. While the forms suggest containment, the cracks suggest release; these elemental tensions establishing a delicate balance between the mediums’ limits and Linn’s ongoing exploration of material and form.”
