Into the Void and Out of the Void

Into the Void and Out of the Void is the first solo exhibition of work by Carmine Aspen as a mixed-media artist. This exhibition is designed to be a journey into the many forms joy takes though an artist’s creations. Most of Carmine’s work is informed by their journey navigating a very chaotic and melancholic mind: bright and hopeful but equally existential and depressive. This collection highlights that dichotomy by bringing together works that were created with a desire to discover what things bring joy regardless of their state of mind.

Paint flowing in whatever way made sense and made the canvas more inviting; the flow of ink as an understanding of its nature grew; the soothing rhythm of bringing needle to fabric in a orderly way; favorite bits and pieces of paper coming together to create new things; the smooth glide of mud under a spatula; or bringing to light places that would better suit being in a story.

Come enjoy this diverse collection of eclectic palettes and surreal expressions that lean into the fantastical & abstract, created in a wide range of mediums: collage, paint, embroidery, and more.

Exhibition runs from July 29th to August 25th, 8am-8pm, and the opening reception is August 1st, 6-8pm
