Ganser Gallery will host “Partial Clearing,” a multimedia installation by John J. H. Phillips and Carolyn Healy, November 1 through December 10. On Wednesday, November 3, from 5 p.m. – 7 p.m., the Gallery will host a talk by the artists, followed by a reception.
About the installation
The impermanence of objects and people we love; a tint of sadness permeating aesthetic experience; the calming endurance of nature—these are at the root of “Partial Clearing,” a multimedia installation by Healy and Phillips. Sculptor Healy encourages a sideways glance at beauty, an appreciation of age and wear revealed in the surfaces of humble materials. She has created pathways through metaphors accompanied by media artist Phillips’ projections of slowly changing abstractions and a multi-channel soundscape of percussive bursts combined with quiet aural shadows.
