Marc Boyson, through the intuitive trace, exposes in the act of mapping moments of passage. These delicate ink line drawings on paper are an accumulation of time collected to reveal as whole the meander of his hand.
These trace drawings derive from invention through the process of remembering journeys down gridded city streets, winding country roads, and hikes throughout his life. As images of these memories flow through Marc's mind, they translate into the line wondering across the plane of the paper. These renderings become a passage from memories into the visible an Intuitive Dérive.
Marc Boyson reveals the cartographic trace through his commutes by using memory, invention, and by GPS records. Through works on paper, projection, murals, sound and ceramics he reveals the sublime in the banal of his movement through space. He is an Associate Professor of Fine Art at the School of Visual Art & Design, Southern Adventist University in Collegedale, TN. Marc exhibited in Radiate exhibition at Kai Lin Art in Atlanta, GA in 2018. He received Best in Show award at the AVA Juried Members Exhibition at the Association for Visual Arts, Chattanooga, TN in 2016. Boyson had a solo show There to Here… Reprise at John C Williams Gallery, Collegedale TN. Marc Boyson graduated with a MFA in Studio Art: Ceramic in 2013 from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA.
The exhibit will run through Friday, November 15th. Hope to see you by the gallery!
