A new series of paintings by Naperville artists Jaime and Michael Foster will debut at Water Street Studios in Batavia. The name of this two-person show is Fragile Tension.
As the days grow darker and history roars back with a vengeance, we ask ourselves… can we stay positive against overwhelming odds? How can we feel hope when it appears all hope is lost? Over 40 new works by Jaime and Michael will represent the fragile relationship humankind has with the natural world and the tension we endure when that relationship is off-balance.
Organically abstract, Jaime’s work simultaneously resembles vast glacial landscapes and intricate microscopic patterns. She is fascinated by our relationship with nature and our environment, both positively and negatively, and how this affects society on an emotional level. Much of Michael’s work involves coming to terms with the abundance of technology-driven information overload we casually experience in modern-day society. He creates post-modern works visually representing data in its raw form, existing within multiple theoretical spacetime dimensions.
