Bruce Burton: Observation and Formulation
July 10-September 4
Opening Reception: Friday, July 10, 2009, 6pm-9pm
Observation and Formulation is a body of work that consists of images, sculpture, and installation, of seemingly unrelated and idiosyncratic materials
and discarded artifacts. On the surface the objects and images seem to
be disconnected, but upon closer examination, a thread reveals itself through formal and conceptual connections. A social environment
begins to appear between the objects, images, and viewer. I am
interested in these relationships that are formed by the viewer's
response to an object and its collective, triggered memories, and
perceived associations of the individual.
