TRISH DEMASI and EDWARD MCHUGH Material Paradigm, 2022 Acrylic, ink, thread, polyester resin and ceramic on double-refined fiberboard 60 1/2 × 47 1/2 × 3 in (153.7 × 120.7 × 7.6 cm) Edward McHugh is an American artist trained as a painter, printmaker, and sculptor. The glossy geometries of his collage constructions belie the stories within. Word fragments, doodles, numerical references, architectural notations, and even string are layered inside smoky, sometimes metallic, washes of resin — revelatory without revealing. A graduate of the Hussian School of Art, Philadelphia, he later studied at Crown Point Press in San Francisco. McHugh's latest works are collaborations with his partner in life and art, ceramic artist Trish DeMasi. Trish DeMasi’s abstract sculptural and functional pieces appear to have emerged from the natural environment yet are not immediately identifiable. Otherworldly elements and unexpected combinations defy reality to create new interpretations of beauty. Though retaining remnants of the visual source, DeMasi pushes her ceramic vocabulary, until the forms become mysterious and new. Conceived initially as drawings or paintings, her pieces are hand built using a variety of clay bodies, carved and then glazed in a restricted palette.
