Frozen Visions called Frizions (frizz-yons) are digital photographs of ice as it freezes and melts when viewed through polarized light. Vivid colors and imaginative shapes emerge. The visual magic happens when this thin ice becomes the canvas I began to control the way the ice grows, into forms I desired, always with color as my guide. Simple forms, detailed and complex forms, and forms that simply happened, as though I imagined them, established my medium. Ice growth became the landscape, and thickness and the polarizer sheet morphed into my color palette.

Dr. Wasilewski spent most of his professional career at NASA studying the structure of the crust of the earth and the magnetic history of the solar system. After graduating from George Washington University, he turned down a contract to play football for the “Baltimore Colts” to participate in an expedition to the world’s largest piece of ice – Antarctica. He was captivated with the frozen continent and has since gone back on 6 different expeditions battling the elements trying to keep warm at temperatures reaching 30 degrees below zero while mapping never-before-explored regions to explore the continent and collect meteorites on the pale blue ice near the Trans-Antarctic mountains.   Near the base of the Antarctic Peninsula, there stands an ancient volcano that bears his name – Mount Wasilewski.

During his trips to Antarctica, Peter sampled the ice and learned how the ice crystals, all with uniquely different ice crystal shapes, air bubble content, and thickness can, by using polarized light, reveal amazing color patterns. This experience and his passion for understanding the science and beauty of ice led to his exploration of the connections between science and art resulting in his creation of a ‘Frizion’. This novel art form is created by controlling emerging color patterns while water is freezing or thawing and capturing the patterns digitally viewed with polarized light. Frizions have been exhibited in various galleries in the United States and Canada. A permanent exhibit can be visited at The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Dr. Wasilewski is currently a Scientist Emeritus at NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center and for the past five years has been traveling the world as a lecturer on cruise ships. He received Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees at George Washington University and a Doctor of Science at the University of Tokyo.

DUE TO A CANCELLATION, DULY NOTED PAINTERS WILL STAY UP THROUGH JUNE.

NO OPENINV RECEPTION WILL HELD

DULY NOTED PAINTERS: We are two painters painting as one artist on the same canvas at the same time.

Unlike traditional collaborations our process does not adhere to a set formula dictating who does what. Similar to jazz musicians, at times we work simultaneously while at others one will step back and observe until inspired to take action again.

Our work is just as much about the creative process as the painted image itself. It is about compromise, discussion, feeling, mood, anger, and love. Over the years we have developed confidence and trust in each other. There are even times when we paint over each other’s work. Like our nature, each piece is experimental and we constantly push each other to grow and learn new techniques as artists.

Each piece combines responses from our individual worlds and the impressions we take from it. We typically start with an object, figure, reference, or vision. This gives us a common ground to start from and is where the painting takes root. We give it life and nurture it to the point where it begins to interact with us. When it reaches the point where we cannot help make it stronger, only then is it complete.

We will not be having the art reception on the first Sunday because of the Easter Holiday. We will be having the opening reception The second Sunday April 8th 5-7pm.

“Transformations”

Arundel Lodge is a 501(C)(3) community non-profit organization, whose mission is
improving the lives of children, adults, and families impacted by mental health and substance use disorders. One in four Americans will experience a mental health disorder in any given year regardless of age, race, religion, gender or economic status. At Arundel Lodge we help people maintain their dignity and enter into the process of recovery.
One of the most popular programs at Arundel Lodge is the Open Eye Gallery at Arundel Lodge.
Participants gain confidence to create expressive works that come from their hearts and report that these activities help them grow, cope with trauma, and aid in their overall recovery. Art sold from the “Transformations” Art show at 49 West benefits the artists directly and helps provide supplies for the therapeutic arts program.

To learn more about this important program or to volunteer please contact Open Eye Gallery Director, Corinna Woodard at 443-433-5914

Walker Babington is an artist, actor and stunt performer who creates images on reclaimed materials by exploiting their inherent deteriorative properties. Through burning wood, rusting steel, tarnishing copper, and scratching, grinding, melting, marring and otherwise selectively corroding his media, Babington has traveled the world creating his creatively-destructive work. Over the past decade, his variegated career has included working as a street artist in rural Costa Rica; using his flame-engulfed body to scorch a “Fire Angel” into wood; and creating large-scale fire-drawn murals in San Francisco, New Orleans, and Bangalore, India.
Sculpturally, Babington builds larger-than-life dreamscape creations that employ curved architecture, storybook aesthetic, and his wheelhouse reclaimed materials. He is (mostly) based in New Orleans, where he creates solar pyrography (artwork made by burning an image into wood using a magnifying glass and the sun) in the legendary Jackson Square.
