Society of North American Goldsmiths (SNAG Exhibit at Kobo)

"Art by Attrition"

Subtractive processes have a particular dynamic. When using these techniques, all of the material that an artist will have to work with is present from the beginning and, once removed, cannot be replaced. This exhibition will call attention to this unseen tension by including images or examples of raw materials or works in progress.
