Knit N’ Paintin’
New Work by Paul Komada
January 02 – February 02, 2013
Reception / Thursday, January 03, 6–8pm
I think about knitting when I paint.
I think about painting while I knit.
It is this constant exchange of ideas that leads me to find new possibilities in the work.
— Paul Komada
For the current show, Knit N’ Paintin’, Komada is exploring elusive boundaries between “art” and “craft”. By utilizing both the language of painting and knitting, he is creating a body of work which includes knit/canvas paintings, watercolors, and an installation using knit fabrics.
