-Hi there, and welcome to the show.
I'm Nancy Guppy, coming to you from Koplin
Del Rio Gallery, where I am surrounded
by Klara Glosova’s magnificent exhibit,
“Diving into the Wreck.”
♪♪
Inspired by images of traditional Japanese
pearl divers known as ama, who descend to great depths
without protective gear or supplemental oxygen,
Klara’s monotypes, paintings, and sculptures
are centered around water, the body and the subconscious.
Klara describes her process this way...
Quote “I dove in, and one by one, print my print,
a story unfolded.”
The dive became a metaphor about going down deep
into my own subconscious, facing things I was afraid of,
and emerging with treasure,
which is so often gleaned in the depths.”
“Diving into the Wreck,” a gorgeous, thought
provoking show from a distinguished artist
working at the top of her game, runs through October 28th.
Hours and location are at koplindelrio.com
