Oil and Earth, a solo exhibition by Rory Terrell
Rory Terrell has changed oil painting by repurposing used motor oil and dirt as medium. This show is about the hundreds of documented oil spills that have happened in our environment since 1910, with an estimated 56.7 million barrels of oil spilled. Rory utilizes the crisp black quality of the used motor oil within the acrylic containers to bring the viewer into the artwork. The deep black reflective image of you and your surroundings stair back at you as you gaze into the layers of sand, dirt, clay and chalk. The viewer becomes a part of the artwork, just as we are all a part of the pollution being inflicted around us.
