Piece description from the artist
This photograph emphasizes an industrial aesthetic by focusing on the rigid geometry of stacked grids, which create a powerful sense of depth and structure. The prism’s intervention distorts and fragments this space, bending the grid’s lines and introducing an element of visual tension. Light and color play crucial roles, with the prism refracting reflections into flat, graphic elements and shifting the grid’s hues into an analogous color scheme, only momentarily punctuated by a flash of pink in the lower right corner, transforming a utilitarian subject into a visually compelling exploration of space, light, and color.
Brandon Woods (b. 1987, Knoxville, TN, USA) is an interdisciplinary artist who creates his work at the intersection of art, craft, science, and math. His research-based process has led him to create dynamic abstract paintings on innovative, dimensional shaped panels and to creating prismatic photographs bursting with color. Woods earned his MFA in Painting from SCAD in 2015 and his BFA in Studio Art (Painting and Sculpture) from Middle Tennessee State University in 2010. He has received numerous awards and grants for his work, including most recently an American Rescue Plan grant through the combined support of the Arts & Culture Alliance of Knoxville, the City of Knoxville, and the Federal Department of the Treasury to construct a large-scale work based on the James Webb Space Telescope that is now on permanent display in the Emporium in downtown Knoxville. His work has been exhibited and collected throughout the United States and internationally: in New York, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas, Hong Kong, Canada, and France. He currently lives and works in Knoxville, TN.
