MAX Occupancy Art Projects: FLIGHT MAPS, Patricia Sonnino Opening Reception
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Please join us for the opening reception of Patricia Sonnino's Flight Maps. You'll enjoy a craft cocktail punch created for the exhibition and bites from Burritt Tavern while you mix and mingle with the newest MAX Occupancy artist who takes a contemporary approach to abstraction where the painting’s paradoxical ground is always in the process of taking flight and becoming other.
Many different spaces with individual artistic languages inhabit her colorful layered works on wood panel. Hard edges meet and zoom off into soft ones, shallow spaces swerve into deep, and opaque colors collide with the luminous.
The juxtapositions of these arrangements of diverse, self-contained spaces resemble a "still life" in flight.
Sonnino holds a MA and BA in Architecture from Washington University in St. Louis. She exhibits nationally and is represented by SFMOMA Artist Gallery. Sonnino taught at the Boston Architectural Center and was a visiting artist at Fort Lewis College in Colorado and the University of Birmingham in the U.K. She has been awarded residencies at the Vermont Studio Center, Willapa Bay and Playa.
