"Moon Age Daydream" new work by Derek Keenan- Opening Reception

Derek Keenan (1978, Denver, United States) is an artist who mainly works with mixed media. Focusing on the attributes of reclaimed materials--primarily broken skateboards--Keenan methodically refines and transforms the seemingly random and sometimes tumultuous nature of the material itself into orderly new forms, bringing new life to that which would otherwise have been discarded in a throwaway society. While maintaining a hint of familiarity, these transfigured forms invite  the viewer to examine their own understanding of what is or is not useful. 

Join us for the opening night reception with the artist with music and refreshments.
