Incipient Arts was formed in Spring of 2012 and is dedicated to promoting a friendly, inclusive art scene that allows for collaboration, new ideas and growth. This is the collective's first group show.
Its current members, Madelyn Mann, K Lenore Siner and Kathriel Brister formed the collective to share process, insight and information as a way to support each other through the often solitary practice of painting.
While all three artists work is primarily figurative, they approach figure with varied mediums and perspectives. Brister's acrylic paintings are realistic and obsessively detailed while Mann's work on burlap is loose, line heavy and reminiscent of Schiele and Siner's encaustic work highlights delicately painted figures often obscured to abstraction behind successive layers of wax.
What creates continuity is that all the paintings in this show are narrative and and personal in theme - exhibited together the contrast in styles serves to highlight the varying emotional tone of each artist's work.
