Goya Contemporary, Baltimore, is delighted to announce the forthcoming exhibition of Claire Campbell Park, her second solo showcase, which will be on view from September 18th to October 30th, 2024.

In her exhibition titled Still Point in the Motion of Being, Park aims to capture a sense of “reverence, dignity, hope, and peace amidst a world where these qualities are often overlooked, while acknowledging the realities and challenges we face.”

Through meticulously crafted woven objects, she seeks to evoke a profound connection and understanding. Park articulates, “I see in the vast and the small an eternal stillness within the motion of being, the promise of qualities worth living and struggling for. I strive for this beauty which connects us and am delighted when viewers tell me the work clears their minds, heals, calms, supports them in living their own best intentions, their own integrity.“

Claire Campbell Park’s artistic endeavors extend far beyond weaving. She employs high-quality linen and meticulously arranges colors to produce intricate and nuanced patterns. With a career spanning over four decades, Park has honed her skills in working with this medium since the 1970’s, a period during which weaving experienced a resurgence in popularity. Her focus is on the conceptual aspects of color and texture, rather than merely the technical aspects of weaving. Her work challenges the traditional textile art of the early 20th century, which often prioritized the practical aspects of the craft. Instead, Park utilizes color and texture to create a more immersive sensory experience.
