In "Above and Below: Stephanie Roberts-Camello & Emily Gibson" at the museum through May 10, Stephanie Roberts-Camello and Emily Gibson investigate networks of events that are detectable by exploring below the surface. One artist removes layers of color to unearth an embedded personal history. The other uses the body as an instrument of measurement to create drawings that chronicle the pressures of social, emotional, and political upheaval. Both delve into the reverberating presence of the environment and its impact on human activity. Please view, the sculptural forms of Roberts-Camello's paintings. They reveal scarring and built up strata of encaustic wax over old family letters that date back as far as 1918. She says she became aware of the challenges her family faced in the panhandle of Texas during the dust bowl days and the Great Depression. They were farmers and cattlemen who struggled with droughts and dust storms making difficult decisions in order to survive. She sees a metaphoric connection captured in the wax for struggle and endurance. The wax, as it cools, retains every tear, fold, and impression. Roberts-Camello also creates rusted paper and eco printing from nature beneath her work as touchstones to the past. Both artists excavate stories by using a vantage point provided by time, searching within the activities of human interaction and exchange. In a separate page, the colorful work of Emily Gibson willbe shown.

Above and Below: Stephanie Roberts-Camello & Emily Gibson February 23 - May 10 In an exhibit at The Art Complex Museum from February 23 through May 10, Stephanie Roberts-Camello and Emily Gibson investigate networks of events that are detectable by exploring below the surface. One artist removes layers of color to unearth an embedded personal history. The other uses the body as an instrument of measurement to create drawings that chronicle the pressures of social, emotional, and political upheaval. Both delve into the reverberating presence of the environment and its impact on human activity. The sculptural forms of Roberts-Camello's paintings reveal scarring and built up strata of encaustic wax over old family letters that date back as far as 1918. She says she became aware of the challenges her family faced in the panhandle of Texas during the dust bowl days and the Great Depression. They were farmers and cattlemen who struggled with droughts and dust storms making difficult decisions in order to survive. She sees a metaphoric connection captured in the wax for struggle and endurance. The wax, as it cools, retains every tear, fold, and impression. Roberts-Camello also creates rusted paper and eco printing from nature beneath her work as touchstones to the past. Emily Gibson exhales onto drops of ink using the force of her breath to create graphic shapes that are then transferred to paper. She says her drawings act as a shrine to vulnerability and resilience. Other materials connected to the systems of human anatomy are often introduced including salt, water, and the oil from her fingertips. These vistas are altered through secondary additions of color as the stimuli of the environment dictate an unfolding process. The end result fluctuates between micro and macro views that suggest cellular forms and celestial bodies. Both artists excavate stories by using a vantage point provided by time, searching within the activities of human interaction and exchange. An opening reception is planned for February 23 from 1:30until 3:30 p.m.
