Listen "Episode 13: Branching Out Works in Wood from North Carolina"
Episode Synopsis
Hello this is Willard Watson, and you are listening to BRAHM to go. Welcome to season 2 of our podcast. This season we will meet a group of artists who have spent their lives working with wood.
Wood is one of the most versatile of materials. It can be malleable or rigid, light or dark, smooth or rough, young or old. Artists carve, cut, sand, sculpt, bend, bind, and burn it.
Branching Out: Works in Wood from North Carolina features a diverse selection of work, ranging from wooden furniture to sculpture, as well as a variety of types of wood and techniques used to create these contemporary works. Exhibiting artists come from across the state of North Carolina and include Roger Atkins, Derrick Beasley, Kim & Paul Fuelling, Mark Gardner, Aspen Golann, Craig Kassan, Jim Oleson, Brent Skidmore, Bob Trotman, Anthony Ulinski, Joël Urruty, Zak Weinberg, and Erik Wolken. Works in the exhibition explore concepts of functionality, texture, color, form, space, humanity, belief, and technology. These artists “branch out” to create work out of wood in unique ways, expanding the possibilities within this familiar medium.
In the first episode of the season, we will hear from Dianna Cameron, BRAHM's former executive curator who curated this exhibit before she departed the museum. Today, we're featuring artists Aspen Golann, Bob Trotman, Derrick Beasley, and Roger Atkins. View the Coffee with the Curator tour here, https://youtu.be/kzPCacYr4l8
