Washington State based artist Jan Hoy engages in an inquiry into space, structure, and clarity using elegant forms created by steel and clay. Her work is conceptually driven by formal questions, each sculpture, as she describes is “a three-dimensional answer to a question” arrived at through prolonged contemplation and refinement. The results are abstract forms of striking simplicity, of single, unadorned shapes distilled into an essential geometry with nothing extraneous.
Over 600 entries from Washington and Oregon artists juried to 130 accepted pieces. Awards chosen in 2-D, 3-D, and photo/digital categories, along with the best of show award. CVG Gallery, Bremerton, WA
