WHITE
This
season, we're dreaming of it! Bright white, winter white, invigorating
white, spiritual white – it's the Gallery 110's Holiday Show theme.
White
is deceptively simple, but highly complex. All colors make white light,
but none make white paint. Cold white snow and white hot stars; the
Western color of purity and the Eastern color of death. And it's the
color of a fresh start for a New Year.
This December, give a gift that's the perfect color for everyone's life – we'll even wrap it to go that same day!

Julie Cattin expresses
a manifestation of thoughts. The images paired with each thought form are simple
line drawings allowing the colored thought forms to become the subject. The
thoughts themselves for the most part remain unexplained, only guided by the
text accompanying each piece. Bright, candy colored paintings and sculptures
allow serious and personal thoughts to be approachable.
Whether
hovering around a simple setting, a figure, or alone, the clusters are physical
representations of thoughts set apart from the thinker. Deciphering what each
thought formation means is not the goal; it is to simply recognize their
presence.
