#wallsculpture
@bev_fishman’s bold, polychromatic wall works meditate on the many parallels that can be drawn between #pharmaceuticals and art. Like taking a pill, an experience with art is often brief yet has the ability to induce a response that runs deep within in one’s being. Fishman’s vivid #geometric reliefs may not take on the overt physical appearance of #pills, but are representative of how pharmaceutical companies utilize #aesthetic appeal in their products to offer the promise of a better reality. Each optically alluring and carefully crafted shape stacked within her compositions is assigned an ailment denoted by the title of the work.
With all of the chaos surrounding the Covid #vaccine and health care concerns rampant as a result of the pandemic, Fishman’s slick, subtle sculptural paintings provide a moment of relief, drug-free.
