Reception: April 20, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Ian Wright

Christopher Henry Gallery

550 W 29th St

Join us as we celebrate Wright's continuing exploration into the utilization of easily available and deliberately inexpensive materials. In Mass Production Wright uses over 2800 one inch buttons as pixels to construct each image. In an age of immediate digital media, Wright has intentionally created a time-consuming, alternative form of pixilation assembled entirely by hand. In this reinterpretation of the portrait the merging of old and new technologies with sensory responses presents the material and the subject in a totally new context. The secret soul of the common object materializes and gives expression to the personality of the subject, beginning the metamorphosis of the ordinary into something extraordinary.
