BRIEF SYNOPSIS: Featuring the sculptural paintings of LA based artist Ron Reihel whose work explores the relationship between light and space by breaking down forms in into their most minimal and elementary representations. Invoking the work of Robert Irwin and James Turrell, the pieces need to be experienced rather than seen. The work is infused with color and light sensitive material that allow the pieces to evolve with the environment around them. From abstract linear patterns to translations of landscapes and plant life, the works transport the viewer into an alternate world of color and light.
