Inside/Outward

September 6, 2016 - September 30, 2016

Weirdly distorted and morphing figures in confusing spaces. Patterned marks, raw colours and contrasts, shifting perspective, layers and history of making. Paintings that represent people and spaces but also reference the flatness of surface.

The subject of human interaction is fascinating. For an introverted person, meeting other people is often fraught with anxiety. This anxiety is processed into these paintings.

Scenes from everyday life act as an armature onto which energetic brushwork infuse these scenes with activity and evoke a sense of fleeting memories.

Pete Kohut is a self-taught artist currently enrolled part-time in the Visual Arts program at the University of Victoria. His work has been shown in Central and Southern Vancouver Island and Greater Vancouver. In 2010, Kohut was a finalist in the First Annual Victoria Emerging Artist Awards and has since had solo shows in Victoria.
Slowly, he made his way to the West Coast (Victoria) where he now works as an in-house book designer for a local publisher.
