Sara Post : Hum : Abstracting Land + Sky
“the world’s word is a single chorused note—
a vibrancy, a hum, silence”. —Annie Dillard
reception: October 4, 4-6pm
artist's talk : November, 1 3pm
“Hum” is a response to resonances in nature. This work is a record of a long habit of walking, of watching fields, sky and weather. These walks ramble along green parks and gardens, turn down a long ditch and open onto a higher road that runs by miles of open space at the edge of town. At night there are stars. It is a landscape of change, shaped by human activity, yet inherently wild. I have painted from memory and sensation, asking what it is to be alive inside the life of a small planet in a vast, mysterious universe.
This work owes a debt to a number of other artists.
Composer John Luther Adams’s installation, “The Place Where We Go To Listen”, an experience of light and sounds attuned to weather and earth movements across Alaska.
Composer Michael Z. Prime’s bioelectronic made in collaboration with recordings of plant communications.
Painter Nuala Clark’s explores on sensing color in her recent book, Irish Moss of a Dead Mans Skull.
Printmaker and Crown Point Press founder Kathan Brown’s memoir, John Cage : Visual Art To Sober and Quiet The Mind
Poet Cole Swensen’s Art In Time—essays on contemporary landscape
Epperson Gallery
1400 Pomona Street
