Art Studio alumna Julia Haft-Candell (BA 2005) solo exhibition “Double Knot” will run from January 16 to February 20, 206 at the Ochi Projects in Los Angeles.

Haft-Candell most recently finds herself inspired by physical forms that have function; shapes such as knots, braids, combs or scribbles hold her interest for their usefulness and predictability. They reliably bind things together and offer a sense of cohesive pattern, but are rarely contemplated as also being visually appealing. Haft-Candell creates monuments out of these everyday shapes. At first rendering them as flat drawings, the artist then progresses to clay and begins to build a three dimensional version of her lines.

Opening reception Saturday, January 16, 2016 from 6-8 pm
