From the gallery: "In Oaxaca Between the Lines, Gary Goldberg will feature five new large-scale hand felted wall textiles made in partnership with artisans in Oaxaca, Mexico. While shiny photographs of Mexican cobblestone streets lined with brightly stuccoed exteriors may be commonplace, Goldberg’s photography steps closer to explore how the Colonial Mexican architecture transforms into landscapes and mythologies when shot in close range. These painterly images are taken and transformed into photorealistic tapestries using a felting process at Taller Afelpado in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico. Goldberg’s textiles explore many threads but one central concept – is landscape a construct? In his work Goldberg makes references to the landscape by imposing a false horizon line and creating a pictorial space that refers to a land sky relationship. The works seek to explore the idea of abstracted landscapes by bifurcating a composition and utilizing dark and light values."
