(Kittery, ME) Drift Contemporary Art Gallery will be opening the exhibition Tangles & Snarls with an artist reception on Friday, September 10th from 5:00 to 8:00 pm. Jane Hesser, adjunct faculty at Rhode Island School of Design, will show her body of work entitled Tangles & Snarls, which had a full review and was featured on the cover of Artscope magazine in 2009. Tyson Jacques, a recent MFA graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, will show paintings from The Imperative Series based on a collaborative handwriting experiment.

In addition, Drift Gallery will have a simultaneous installation by Jacques at the BUOY Gallery in Kittery where he will take the shared experience of mark-making one step further into wall drawings and a collaborative narrative through audience participation with the work. He will re-create a chapter from Gulliver’s Travels on a chalkboard wall and invite the audience to edit the story and the facts as they see fit. Over time, the story changes and the work matures into an examination of the collaboration, a form of collective portraiture. Sculpture by Sean Hasey from the Corey Daniels Gallery in Wells, ME will also be on exhibit. The exhibition runs from September 1st through September 30th.

The opening and artist reception is part of the Kittery Art Walk also being held that evening from 5:00 to 8:00 pm. For a complete list of participating artists and galleries, please click here.

Drift Gallery is located at 7 Shapleigh Road in Kittery, and will be holding exhibitions throughout the summer and fall of 2010. For more information, please contact Ali Goodwin at 207-438-0417 or art@drift-gallery.com. Visit Drift Gallery on the web at www.drift-gallery.com.
