Jack Pierson
IDEAS, 2023
Metal and plastic
304.8 x 137.2 cm
120 x 54 in
Jack Pierson’s word sculptures move beyond a singular interpretation. He questions the construction of meaning by deconstructing the viewer’s search for it. The formal beauty of the work is evident. The repositioning, re-contextualizing and recycling of his source material- mismatched metal, plastic and wood letters salvaged from commercial signage, resets the viewer’s expectations. The composition as a whole requires a different reading, a suspension of assumption in exchange for possibility.
Ideas are the blood of any kind of creative practice. Without ideas, no progress, artistic or scientic can be made. Ideas are essential to Pierson's word sculptures, which at times can seem finite. Pierson needed an idea...so what about IDEAS?
