Logan T. Sibrel: Thought Cage
Auxier Kline is pleased to present our third solo exhibition by Logan T. Sibrel, Thought Cage, featuring a survey of new paintings and works on paper created by the Brooklyn based artist especially for this exhibition.
Logan T. Sibrel blurs the line between subject and object. He frequently treats still-life and portraiture as interchangeable鈥攄epictions of figures aren鈥檛 necessarily more intimate or telling than a group of objects, which often serve as proxies. The works included in the exhibition are simultaneously very specific, indicating precise times and places, yet Sibrel鈥檚 figures are frequently obscured to the point of rendering them a sort of everyman: something to project onto.
Sibrel's art often uses references to queer life, specific places, songs, and books to evoke specific scenes. His work conveys a sense of intimacy and closeness that is simultaneously elusive and fleeting. By telling fragmented stories, Sibrel connects with the viewer through authenticity and vulnerability. While his art often has a sexual tone, he uses sexuality as a medium to explore themes of interpersonal relationships, longing, and disappointment, rather than for erotic representation.
Sibrel's works hover at the borderline of opposing forces: sweetness and menace, engagement and aloofness, joy and sorrow.
