jen stark: the power ofmartha otero gallery, los angeles, USAon now until december 1st, 2012
miami-born and los angeles-basd artist jen stark has on display at martha otero a collection of her most recently completed rainbow artworks comprised of wood, paper and other organic materials meticulously cut into sculptures. stark’s new three-dimensional series is comprised of rhythmic and prismatic pieces as manifestations of her interest in mathematics, microscopic patterns in nature, wormholes, and sliced anatomy in ‘to the power of’. the series draws in passersby as their initial glance becomes ensnared in the hypnotic psychedelic visual experience of each piece, lingering upon the seemingly innumerable layers which build each work of art.
