As I mentioned in my previous post, up and coming Houston artist Peter Suprean and his new series, Loss Optimism, have caught my attention. Here is the official announcement for his upcoming opening at Cueto James Gallery. Peter Suprean's, latest work, the series entitled
Loss Optimism, is a mixed medium installation that displays relics and artifacts from a culture and time that has not yet existed. The show will include life-sized human replicas, tools, weapons, art and religious artifacts from this conceived culture's daily life. The pieces in
Loss Optimism are both darkly futuristic while also giving one the impression that they have come from an ancient time long passed, which gives this exhibit its striking nature. Suprean has essentially constructed a mythical world, and the pieces he has created act as a springboard for the viewer's imagination, capable of transporting them to another reality fashioned by both the viewer and artist.
