Kevin Campbell: The Puzzle Project<\/span>\u00a0features puzzle piece groupings that the artist cuts from plywood and paints individually. Each grouping has a place in a much larger puzzle that could be assembled if all the pieces were brought together.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Puzzle Project is a work of art that has no edge, and so it can be added onto and \u2018grow\u2019 indefinitely. This exhibit will be anchored by a composite image showing what the entire puzzle would look like if it were fully assembled.<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the evening, Campbell will be on hand to engage with viewers and answer questions. Light refreshments will be served, and the public is invited to attend.<\/span><\/p>\n

All of the puzzle groupings are expressions of the interconnectedness of the natural world. Each individual piece is \u201cinherently part of something larger than itself,\u201d says Campbell, speaking about the idea that has driven his art for decades. \u201cAs it grows, pieces and groups of pieces are separated and treated as individual works of art.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

These groups will be hung and for sale in the Gordy gallery. Those who own a piece of the Puzzle Project will forever have a place in the larger composition.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWorks of art are often referred to as \u2018pieces of art,\u2019\u201d says Gordy owner Carl Schafer. \u201cFor Kevin Campbell, this is literally true. He is making only one work of art that has many pieces. Campbell has placed no boundaries on his single work of art. It can continue forever and each piece will always have its place.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
