Well-known for a fascination with the expressive possibilities of materials, Benicia Gantner's boundless approach allows her to move fluidly between two and three dimensions with both minimal and exuberant gestures. Gantner's new sculptures explode off the wall, expand out of corners and burst with energetic color and tactility. Her works on paper reverberate from the push and pull of competing influences: organic vs manufactured, analog vs digital and reductive vs cumulative, until a clarity emerges from chaos. While Gantner's hybrid spaces reflect the fraught relationships of contemporary life, she also describes the work as being about "potential, the act of becoming, and the possibility of what lies between."
