Heidi Hybl & Noro Partido

Heidi Hybl and Noro Partido continue their investigation of the seven pillars of Japanese aesthetics known as wabi-sabi within their own artistic practices. Last year they concentrated on producing work inspired by Kanso, a term used to encompass simplicity and essential form. This year, they focus on Datsuzoku, an exploration of creative freedom.

For Hybl, Datsuzoku means that the message lies in the medium and the application of oil paint. Similarly, Partido’s printmaking process emphasizes action and response.

The artists will be giving an Artist Talk on Saturday April 22 at 2pm. All are welcomed to join these artists’ visual and philosophical voyage and reflect on what Datsuzoku means to them by viewing their April Showcase.
