'Rustic' by Justin Burwinkel and Emily Moorhead Featured in Park National Bank Art Gallery
Rustic by Justin Burwinkel and Emily Moorhead will be featured in the Park National Bank Art Gallery at UC Clermont College from January 31 February 22. An opening reception will be held on Friday, February 10, 6-8 p.m.
Burwinkel, a local photographer and presently a doctoral student in the College of Allied Health Sciences at the University of Cincinnati prides himself as an avid artist-scientist and Moorhead, with a master of fine arts degree from Washington University in St. Louis, MO., and a bachelor of fine arts from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio is a mixed media artist.
This duo exhibit offers sentimental imagery of local historical treasures through Burwinkels photography as well as a glimpse of cultural contradictions through Moorheads three dimensional works that leave room for critical contemplation.
Burwinkel- Steady Hand at the Till , 30 x20 , photography on canvas
Burwinkel finds the precious beauty in our areas ever diminishing structures such as railroads, barns and bridges, Blessed, too, was I to have grown up in an area still populated with beautiful wooden barns and covered bridges. As I began photographing the world, I felt drawn to these fleeting wooden structures, even those that had begun to tumble down, that still existed around me. Moorheads works engage the viewer in examining social contradictions, Examples can be found in personal conflicting experiences like the kindness of a stranger who advocates gun use/ownership she states Through my work I attempt to reconfigure what has been presented as truth, initiate conversations, and generate empathy.
