Rockella Space is excited to announce the opening reception of CONTOURS: 10 Studies of the Circle and Square by Liam Minihan on Saturday, September 14th, from 6 to 9 pm.
“Contours,” thoughtfully combines geometric and illusionary studies with the industrial facade of One Eyed Studios. By meticulously creating weatherproof paintings on this functional architectural element, Minihan invites viewers to explore and contemplate. The illusionary contours play a fascinating role, as our visual system infers edges and shapes through interaction with the geometric forms present.
Come for art, conversation, and libations (refreshments served).
CONTOURS: 10 Studies of the Circle and Square is on view 24/7 until November 14th.
About Liam Minihan
Liam Minihan (He/Him) is a Ridgewood, Queens-based painter who highlights the rarity of regular geometric forms in nature and as human constructs. He blends traditional painting methods with modern materials, including plastics, stainless steel, and epoxy.
Born in Fremont, Michigan, Minihan moved to New York City in 2012 where he first saw Rothko’s “No. 10” at the Museum of Modern Att. Minihan’s profound reaction to the painting jumpstarted personal explorations of the novel emotional and physical effects achievable through the interplay of shape, color, and perception.
In 2019, Minihan established his studio at One Eyed Studios, Ridgewood, Queens, where he presently works.
