Guest Artist Pete Sack exhibition. The Paintings of Pete Sack;

This body of work features the two lanes in which my art inhabits, the figurative and the abstract.  

The inspiration for each abstract piece varies, but each is a reaction to specific personal experiences. This collection is my response to ambiguity and uncertainty. The forms and marks represent the ways that opposite ideas can exist at the same time. Clairity lives next to uncertainty and balance exists in the midst of instability. The shapes and colors have a push-and-pull effect, attempting to bring order to the piece. The result is a puzzle-like composition that feels grounded and complete.

In my portraits, I aim to capture both the complexity and harmony that exist in our lives and the ways in which we engage with one another. Like these works of art, discovery unfolds overtime. We only truly know each other when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and invite people to examine our layers. This work is about taking that deeper look and contemplating what makes us whole.
