DAVID ONRI ANDERSON: PAPER MIND

Bijan Ferdowsi Gallery / 504 Southgate Ave. November 12, 2016 - November 30, 2016

David Onri Anderson

Paper Mind is a solo exhibition of new work by David Onri Anderson that involves paintings, drawings, and sculpture that reflect on the unity of stillness and motion of the hand and mind as it makes an image or object that can become a space as well as inhabit a space. The show is intended to have a meditative quality to encourage a lifestyle of serenity and simplicity in an ever changing city where change and development can create problems as well as opportunities for locals and visitors.

when the mind is blank
like a new piece of paper
anything can be written or drawn or folded
the sunlight can cast a new color on the paleness
and illuminate paper potential
put inside me a tea candle
and fold me into a paper lantern
i want to rest in your darkness
and light up your world
