Perfect Timing: Recent Work by Nathan Vernau
Open hours: Sundays 11a-3p or by appointment
Perfect Timing is a party for the retinas—pure visual joy. Upon closer inspection, Vernau’s bright colors and friendly forms offer veiled glimpses of deeper, and often time darker personal narratives.
Beneath the balloons and heart-shaped confetti, anger, frustration and the weight of the day-to-day create an undercurrent of malcontent.
Urgent, playful and elegantly composed, the work in Perfect Timing challenges traditional art narrative with methodically cut paper and colored pencil patterning.
