Artist Talk with Jack Craft

Join us Friday, June 9, 5-7 pm, when Jack Craft will be discussing his current solo show on view at Kouri + Corrao, What Once Was The Sea Is Now A Desert.

“As a child, I would find fossils of seashells on hillsides evidencing that the place where I was standing, 3000 feet above sea level, was once underwater,” says Craft. “This new body of work is a synthesis of living through droughts and watching the plant life on my family ranch wither. I am imagining a rusted and monochrome world desiccated as a desert but with ancient geologic forms merged with recent skeletal reefs and marine forms – a landscape horrible, yet beautiful in its own way.”
