“Microcosm” Art Opening Reception | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Hashimoto Contemporary is pleased to welcome back represented artist Crystal Wagner for her second solo show at the gallery. Titled “Microcosm”, our July exhibition consists of new and recent paper sculptures.

Focusing on texture and bright colors, Wagner constructs biomorphic worlds out of manipulated paper. Assembled with a sense of natural growth, each sculpture ranges in both size and complexity.

Combining screen printing with hand-cut precision, the artist allows her materials to build upon themselves. Each layer of paper moves intrinsically, often taking on the mannerisms of reptilian scales or cascading water. Housed in custom- made wooden “terrariums”, Wagner’s paper works give the illusion of an unknown force flourishing against its rigid constraints.

Please join them for “Microcosm”, opening Thursday, June 30 with an evening reception from 6pm-10pm, where the artist will be in attendance.
