ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

Continuing our commitment to highlight the work of exceptional DC-based emerging artists, Transformer's13th Annual DC Artist Solo Exhibition presents the work of Hannah Spector in her first solo exhibition.

Featuring a new body of collage and mixed media installation work that examines shape and color in relation to myth, we lost our teeth for a second time plays upon a lyrical interpretation of man’s mythical understanding of consciousness through symbols and shadows. Through an investigation of the seeming irrelevant shape and form, Spector aims to choreograph color and shape and explore the dichotomy of form and sensation.

Spector elaborates, “When shape and color are carefully introduced to one another, an unconscious idea is unwound from the tongue and pulled through the eyes—exposing feeling from archaic abstraction.”

Hannah Spector is an interdisciplinary artist, curator, and poet, with a degree in English and Creative Writing from George Washington University. Spector’s work has been published in London, Paris, Florida, and Washington, DC and can be viewed online at her website www.hannahspector.com

EXHIBITION HOURS: Wednesday-Saturday, 12-6pm and by appointment. Please note Transformer will be closed December 24, 2015 - January 6, 2016.
