Paul Clark, Donna Hapac, Bruce White

Catalog for the exhibition at UIMA features works by three Chicago contemporary artists working in three different innovative media: two sculptors and one photographer, each developing their own and individual style. Inspired by plants, birds, and sea creatures, Donna Hapac builds sculptures from reed, waxed linen thread, and wood. Paul Clark takes pictures of Chicago’s urban fences and brick walls and presents them printed onto different materials. Bruce White’s preferred materials are stainless steel and aluminum. He used a plasma arc cutter to make pattern-like openings in the pieces and finishes them with colored powder-coats.
