The Burgeoning from Chris Ryniak
Thursday February 11, 2010 |
 Painter and sculptor Chris Ryniak's first west coast solo show and new body of work, The Burgeoning, is a collection of paintings and hand-painted resin cast sculptures. Ryniak has been acknowledged internationally as a "creature creator," but a deeper look at these beings shows the tumultuous world in which they are forced to struggle to survive.
While the creatures that inhabit Ryniak's world are unfamiliar, they serve as an embodiment of the natural world that human beings have grown to all but ignore.
The Burgeoning further explores the theme of the never-ending cycle of life in the natural world, the flawless system of checks and balances that flourishes without human meddling. Through color and an ordered chaos of mark-making, this world is brought to life in this new series of paintings and sculptures.
