Opening reception during the IDADA First Friday Art Tour
May 5, 6 – 9 pm

Brewer’s expressive abstractions are inspired by dreams and meditation. The large canvases employ bold color, texture, and suggested forms to evoke images that explore one’s relationship to the environment, to others, and oneself. Brewer’s work begins with a gesture of graphite on paper or a wash of paint on canvas. She then intuitively follows her innate impulse to explore the material and capture its essence in the form of energy.

Brewer’s new work is the result of her 2015-2016 Creative Renewal Arts Fellowship, awarded by the Arts Council of Indianapolis. The pivotal experience brought on by the Fellowship period resulted in a time of re ection and renewed motivation. The Fellowship not only allowed her more time and space to explore large-scale canvases, but also smaller works on paper, and to return to her early career in ceramics. All three aspects of her artwork will be included in the Gallery 924 exhibition.

Gallery 924 at the Arts Council of Indianapolis provides a mixture of programming that highlights central Indiana contemporary artists in curated solo and group shows. Gallery 924 is a member of IDADA.
