american artist brian jobe deals with repetition as a medium throughout his work.
jobe creates a pulse emanating from organizing applied materials to sculptural forms.
a 'sequential inevitability' where the viewer can question the form
of the object in a hyper-realistic manner.
his show at the blue star contemporary art center in texas, will feature his site specific
piece 'blank tides' in addition to smaller object form studies in the middle gallery.

meant to render the machinery useless, the zip ties bring an ambiguity
to the form of the forklift that allow for the viewer to question their
relationship with the object and freeze it in time.

jobe's work also involves abstracting the forms of smaller objects. his piece 'foil screen' not only abstracts the relationship
between the natural and man-made, but also the relationship between a fence and the viewer.
