SUMMARY:Alexandra Levasseur: EMBEDDED OPTIMISM Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Mirus Gallery is pleased to present EMBEDDED OPTIMISM, a solo exhibition by artist Alexandra Levasseur. EMBEDDED OPTIMISM aims to play in the unification of ceramics and paintings to tell stories of nature as well as the mythological. The opening reception of EMBEDDED OPTIMISM will be July 29th, VIP/Press Opening 6-7 PM then general admission from 7-10 pm, and the exhibition is free and open to the public for viewing through September 30th.\n \nAbout the Exhibition: \n \nThrough painting, sculpture and animated films, I intend to illustrate an ideal relationship between humans and nature. My work is driven by a deep interest in, on the one hand, Physics and Biology and, on the other, Mythology and the mystical interpretations that one can draw from nature, in order to expose the surrealism of the world.\nLately, the integration of fired clay into my practice allows me to shape works that will last over time, while being in direct contact with the earth. I am particularly interested in the physical imprint that is inscribed in the material as a testimony to the act of human creation.\nThis exhibition entitled EMBEDDED OPTIMISM presents works that combine painting, drawing and ceramics on wood panels and fired clay sculptures.\n \nAbout the Artist:  \n \nThrough painting, sculpture and animation, Alexandra Levasseur models an ideal relationship between humans and nature. Her work draws inspiration from Physics, Biology and Mythology, in an attempt to reveal what is surreal in this world. \n \nLately, she has been focusing on the use of fired clay, which allows her to create works that will last over time while being in direct contact with the earth. She’s particularly interested in the physical imprint inscribed in the material as a testimony to the act of human creation. \n \nGallery Contact:  Irene Hernandez-Feiks\n(415) 205-4587, irene@mirusgallery.com\n
