Holly Johnson Gallery will present the opening of Matthew Cusick: "Of All This World At Once," an exhibition of recent archival pigment prints by the Dallas artist.
Working with maps has been the focus of Cusick's studio practice since 2002. He is captivated by the art and science of cartography and the multitude of ways maps represent the spatial complexity of the world.
The exhibition will include a selection of archival prints of Cusick's work, focusing on his map collages of waves. Waves embody the beauty and terrifying power of the ocean and they figure prominently in Cusick's body of work. The world is governed by an ocean that covers more than seventy percent of our world. Learning to navigate the ocean is how we came to know the world and consequently map it. The fragmented maps of Cusick's waves reconfigure the world and suggest alternative histories. They elicit the powerful and volatile nature of the sea while contemplating the fragility of our environment.
Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on view through July 31.
