Curated by Liz Ashe

​

To Build (grow) and Erase (remove) is the root of how artists make decisions, how land masses shift, how erosion works, how one function requires the push and pull from another. “Build/Erase” is based on monochromatic aesthetics and the processes of addition and subtraction. How are artists taking the basic tenets of creation and communication – addition and subtraction, bright and dark, legible and illegible – and creating within this limited but also expansive idea? How can artists take an elegant and minimalist approach, and make something that the viewer stops in their tracks to look at? Ritual activities start small, build, and then dissipate. Sometimes, they come back together in a new way.
