Universes Big and Small—Sculptures by Pamela Grow and Paintings by Paul Solevad
Pamela Grow was born and raised in Australia and moved to the United States in 1969. Living on the Oregon and California coasts, she has collaborated with artists who helped define her spontaneous and slightly quirky style. She has worked with various media but found her passion in creating works of clay. She has exhibited at the Palos Verdes Art Center and Torrance Cultural Center in Southern California, as well as American Crafts Gallery, Cleveland, Ohio, Oregon College of Arts and Crafts, and Phoenix Rising Gallery, Seattle, Washington. She is a member of the Pacific Northwest Sculptors.
Paul Solevad's work explores the idea of universality and connection. The greater “continuum” is expressed in creations of floating fractal symbols and shapes, small windows into our expansive reality. The ongoing continuity of nature, man, and the universe is melded in surrealistic expressionism. Solevad's most recent work delves further into the exploration of nature and form with the series of “Radiolaria” - single-celled organisms that express the fractal patterns seen on every level of our organic reality. He views this new work as meditative mandalas, allowing for contemplation and reflection.
