Studio Montclair presents its 2023 Portfolio Series: Local Materiality, an exhibition of artworks that mix the sensorial with the cerebral and vary in scale from minuscule to vast, encompassing physical, geometric, psychological, topographical, and anthropological considerations.
The concept of materiality says that if we are to change the matter from which an artwork is created, then we may have invariably changed its meaning or message and what it seeks to express. In this exhibit we will be investigating artistic and critical approaches to materiality, focusing on the moments when materials become willful actors and agents within artistic processes.
