ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Presented at Ferrin Contemporary
1315 MASS MoCA Way, North Adams, MA
July 6th- August 10th, 2019
Jason Walker’s solo exhibition, Personal Encounters, presents a new body of work that questions our inter-dependent relationship to nature and technology within the context of today’s world. Walker explores a personal narrative through the use of cougars, birds, and trees co-existing alongside machine-like orbs, circuits, and gears. He treats each surface as a canvas, adding highly illustrative black and white moments against fields of color. This juxtaposition serves to highlight the ever-increasing tension between man and the man-made and our individual understanding of our own place within it all.
