Though distinctly individual in their approach to material, both artists are tied together by their interest in biomorphic, hybrid forms whose appearance can be understood as futuristic, otherworldly, potentially playful, or even scheming. While Clower's stark, hard-edged mechanistic forms reveal enigmatic narratives of a modern industrialized and depersonalized world, Cobb's intimately scaled works are faintly discernable as once functional objects melded into one another, playfully reemerging with protrusions, a bit more swollen and stretched. Both artists draw us into a peculiar physical and psychological reality, leaving us to decode the hidden messages amongst rich hues, wry humor, and strangely elusive forms. The exhibition acts as an invitation to examine the complexity that materializes when the bizarrely outlandish and the strangely mundane collide with the human psyche's awkward yet often beautiful depths.
