You are invited to A World of Spirits, an evocative collection of woodblock prints by Eric Bushée on view at HOMME Gallery. This highly anticipated exhibition follows his last show, Lucky Pitch and Arches at Washington Printmakers Gallery, praised by Mark Jenkins of Washington Post for colors that “harmonize rather than clash.”
Harmonizing colors, congruous forms, and bold patterns characterize the artwork – but what you will experience transcends the surface and speaks to the soul.
A World of Spirits showcases Bushée’s philosophy on color and form as they relate to the human experience. He carefully selects color palettes that evoke a sense of harmony in the viewer. His arrangements of bold shapes into synchronous patterns emphasizes that no single form holds more importance over another. The resulting patterns create a profound sense of unity, reflecting an understanding of how individual elements influence the overall experience.
The interplay of colors and forms mirrors the beauty of cultural exchange, highlighting both the impact of and the subtle balance felt in diverse communities. Each form reflects how cultures and individuals influence one another; their contrasts soften by the spaces between. These spaces further reflect an ongoing dialogue, where differences come together and coexistence is possible.
Bushée’s signature approach to woodblock printing creates a strong narrative of unity. By drawing parallels between visual elements and cultural exchange, the artworks celebrate the impact and subtle balance that can emerge from diversity. Join us in exploring this harmony in a space that fosters connection and celebrates the power of humanity.
