Miranda Zimmer (Gallery Two)
     


           

     

Engaging and colorful, Zimmer's miniscule paintings are more provocative to the reflective mind than a Rorschach test might be. Zimmer chooses brightly colored house paint sample squares as her canvases and then folds another color of paint inside each tiny square. The resulting random design is then detailed with tiny dots of paint. The final product is a minute, but captivating work of art. The small paintings are installed in large groups and are mounted one inch from the wall. This exhibition will showcase approximately 600 of the works arranged in several groupings. Distinct arrangements such as recognizable shapes or a random constellation patterns, draw the viewer further into the psychedelic microcosm Zimmer creates with these minute, colorful squares. What begins as an interest sparked perhaps by the colors or miniature size of the works quickly becomes a more insightful contemplation at what each tiny composition really means.
