An art show AND an art challenge all rolled into one? Yep!\u00a0California based artist\u00a0Clare Szydlowski Odom<\/a> stepped up to that challenge by creating 50 artworks in 50 days. I’ve written about Clare’s 2D silkscreens before<\/a>, but these lovely, beautifully composed houses bring a whole new dimension to her work {see what I did there?}<\/em>. Not only is there actual folded dimension, but she’s also constantly on the look out for even more than that:<\/p>\n

“For the past three years I have been photographing the shadows in my suburban neighborhood in Burlingame where my husband and I rent an in-law unit. This Spring, we adopted a baby boy and on our walks I have continued this practice. The forms of these shadows are visually intriguing, but more interesting to me is the simultaneous sense of presence and absence they project, appearing at once substantial and insubstantial. I am also drawn to the way they mark the passage of time shifting across lawns, sidewalks and on the sides of houses. These shadows have become ghosts of my desires to own a home, to be able to freeze the precious moments of my son’s babyhood and to make the passing of time feel more substantial, something I can hold on to. Collecting these shadows has become a practice in understanding these desires, but also appreciating where I am in the present moment.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Collecting shadows… sigh<\/em>… beautiful.\u00a0Clare’s shadow-covered houses are currently floating on the wall at the\u00a0<\/strong>Sanchez Art Center<\/a> in Pacifica,CA as part of their annual 50\/50 Show<\/strong><\/a>. The show, featuring 50 pieces by over 60 artists*, runs until September 22, 2019. *Art math… that’s over 3000 pieces!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
