Athens, GA - The University of Georgia Center for Continuing Education Conference Center & Hotel will host "(con)textualize", an art exhibit presented by Robin Fay,
July 5 - July 31, 2006 in the center's Hill Atrium. The exhibit is free and open to the public. The Georgia Center is located on the campus of UGA at 1197 S. Lumpkin Street in Athens.
Robin Fay's work features rich, shimmering layered handmade paper, metallic flake, stucco, found objects, sand, oil stick and/or acrylic paint. Incorporating concepts of Celtic design in a modern sense, Robin finds inspiration in the lines, shapes, colors and forms of organic and man-made shapes from DNA spirals, curled ropes, to spiral staircases and sea stacks.
Elements of sand, acrylic and metallic paint, oil pastel, metallic flakes, glitter, acrylic stones, glass beads, paper and tin have all made appearances in her paintings; in her photographs, she actively looks for the hidden in plain view.
Robin's digital art includes elements of all things, as she often uses her own photographs and scans of her paintings combined with new art only created online to bring together yet a new artwork. Her artwork, art journal, and digital projects including SPARC, a project investigating creativity in the arts, can be found at her website, www.robinart.com. Robin is a founding member of southerncreativity.com, a new collaborative regional arts website.
