Press Release Auburn: Art on Main Gallery Anthony Heinz May Contact: Allison Hyde, Arts Coordinator 253-931-3043 arts@auburnwa.gov<mailto:arts@auburnwa.gov> FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 15, 2022 ___________ The City of Auburn and the Auburn Arts Commission are pleased to present an art installation, titled Homeomorphism, by Anthony Heinz May at Auburn's Art on Main window-front gallery, on view April 15 - July 4, 2022. Artist Exhibition Statement: My creations blur lines between the real (natural) and artificial (human-processed) to portray relationships concerning nature, humans and technology. I rearrange and recombine fragments of these forms to reflect the omnipresence of grids in our world. Each fragment represents a disruption of time as recorded visually in woody vegetation (through the growth and change of its original, organic whole). Through geometric deformation, each material is interwoven so both sets of form mirror one another continuously, to allow possibility for non-orientable navigation. This conceptual play of fracturing and grafting like substrates illustrates particularities of past/present/future of Earth, to perceive time found in nature through an anthropocentric lens.
