Pools is a reflection on the fleeting temperament of the material world through the medium of paint.

Opening Reception February 24th from 6pm - 9pm

Pools is open from 12 - 6pm Wednesday through Saturday through March 31st, 2012.

Coinciding with Residency Retrospective, Something Happened, Luminary Resident Katherine McCullough opens the new site-specific installation Pools. Pools is a reflection on the fleeting temperament of the material world through the medium of paint. To me, this space is about stillness– devised both through it’s history as a meditation chapel, and the enveloping quiet of the room. This placidity, juxtaposed with the inherent movement of my work creates a fluid space where the stagnant room and chaotic form coalesce to present an occasion of volatile material. Both slick and static, gestures recall past movement or pending actions—the wet puddle of paint, the quick brush stroke, or the slight frame come together to create the symphonic flesh of a fully immersive painting.

Support for The Luminary’s exhibitions is provided by the Arts and Education Council and the Missouri Arts Council.
