The exhibition
“Great design is a multi-layered relationship between human life and its environment.” —Naoto Fukazawa
The collective art exhibition LAYERS explores the concept of layers, and how artists transmit their unique perspectives by employing a variety of layering techniques such as glazing, collage, encaustic, assemblage, photomontage and stacking.
The word “layer” has often been used to describe a technique used by artists to create depth in their work. Layering approaches in art-making provide intriguing and distinctive outcomes. Historically, painters glazed multiple layers of paint on canvas to achieve dimension. In the 1960s, layer painting became a type of "process" art that developed through the 1970s as abstract, and later advanced with greater complexities. Today, layering includes materials other than paint. The result is described as mixed-media, a method that engages more than one material to create a finished piece.
