JAMES BACCHI – Juror’s Statement for "Structure"
Jurying STRUCTURE was an outstanding opportunity to view many works based on each artist’s interpretation, and how they exercised their creativity with no imposing constraints. I have always relied on the importance of STRUCTURE as the basis to realize the outcome of any given concept.
Selecting works for the gallery exhibition was challenging, and involved several processes. At first, I was caught up in the pure aesthetics of each work. From there I began to approach each selection with an eye for concept, design, arrangement and the relationship between all the elements. In reviewing each media I was presented with concepts ranging from quite simple to hyper detailed. My final selections seemed to depend on pure imagination and strength of execution.
