Brian Wood in “Reflection” at Rhombus Space, Brooklyn, NY, Dec. 1 - Feb. 28, 2022
Reflection
Rhombus Space
“REFLECTION” is a winter show that offers us work that is contemplative and encourages a sense of thoughtful observation. There is a rich sense of wonder in these artworks. Reflection is manifested formally through shapes and composition using symmetry, mirroring and repeating forms; psycho-emotional painterly gestures and intuitive artistic working methods “feeling a painting” come into being. Each artist in this exhibition offers an opportunity to transcend the moment we're in, reflect on our past, and imagine otherworldly places.”

Wood is an originator of what is now called neo-Surrealism and neo-Symbolism. His deep inquiry into psychology and spirit, reaching back to his earliest work in the 70’s, bridges and melds these identities. Wood’s drawings hover between reality and the subconscious, manifesting as impressions of otherworldly dreamscapes, yet appear refracted from the organic textures of our surroundings. In the artist’s own words, the works are “immersed in questions about consciousness and ontology, the mystery of intense images arising to awareness and being, and their complex relationship with and away from time.”
