"Material Consequences "
May 22 - July 27, 2018
Material Consequences is an exhibition that examines how different materials, from oil paint to coffee grounds, can enter into artistic dialogue with one another across time. This exhibition represents two phases in Laurent’s artistic work. In the first phase, he uses conventional materials to paint brilliant, colorful forms; in the second phase of black-and-white paintings, he uses nonconventional materials such as fabric remnants, coal and coffee grounds to demonstrate how the local materials sourced from his surroundings in his Haitian homeland can matter not only practically, but also artistically.
