Dual Duel Exhibition

This show features individuals who produce both visual art and music on a regular basis. There are dualities shared amongst these visual artists/musicians. They are makers whose message vacillates between visual and auditory media. The two disciplines are intertwined in countless ways: overlapping terminology, the desire to express and share, studio discipline, a process of concept, creation, editing, and display.  Honing both crafts is a solitary act, but the reveal is public. This dichotomy requires a creator of visual art and music to be both introvert and extrovert, a tension that persists throughout each creative process. Overshadowing this tension is the duel between the media. One discipline, alone, may limit the ability to reach the maker’s soul and express it completely. Although the message may ultimately choose the medium, the visual artist/musician is split between two worlds.
