“The Choreography of Color,” a solo exhibition by artist Julia Deckman (right), will have a free and public opening event at Hed Hi Studio, 654 King Street, from 6 pm to 10 pm on Saturday, September 10th. The event is sponsored in part by The Miller Gallery and the Lowcountry Quarterly Arts Grant Program.
Deckman is a visual artist working in Charleston for the past 10 years. While she is widely known for her architectural portraits, she has spent the past two years developing an approach and process to abstract, graphic work.
She described the upcoming exhibition as follows:
“‘Color Choreography’ is a deliberate process to explore and showcase the magical relationships between color and form. All elements of this collection (shapes, proportions, color, negative space, texture, etc.) are carefully planned and arranged to achieve a certain energy, much like choreography. The intention is to reveal how special these “simple” ideas of color and form truly are.”
The artist will also host viewing hours at the same location from 5 pm to 8 pm on Monday the 12th and Tuesday the 13th.
