Opening Friday, February 28th at Romer Young Gallery, San Francisco is “Thrown a Curve,” a solo exhibition of new works by Kirk Stoller. “Thrown a Curve” expands on Stoller’s ongoing discourse between object and metaphorical emotional states. At first glance, his sculptural objects exhibit an overt instability. The collection of small, precariously placed pieces that rely on each other for strength and support, accentuates a relationship to the fragility of life. Stoller’s sculptures are built of found wood, plastic, metal, and parts of things that have been divorced from their original context. These weathered materials are then combined with gloss-coated surfaces and custom colors that are part of the artist’s personal lexicon.

 

Opening Reception: Friday, February 28, 2014. 6-8pm

 

“Thrown a Curve” is on view through March 29, 2014.
