James Hough Adam Morey is a two-person exhibition of new, human-scale sculptures. Both artists mention that the scale and the geometry of the pieces for this show is the common ground. Adam Morey's pieces, with their milky and elusive surfaces, stay close to the ground, addressing the free, circular space of the gallery's floor, while James Hough's graphic, kiosk-like pieces stretch from the floor upward into the gallery's cavernous overhead space. The interplay between these cubical sculptures, between translucent and opaque, horizontal and vertical, will address the unique conditions of light and space in the rotunda gallery.
Adam Morey's work was featured in the 2007 Clark County 3D Invitational. He received his MFA in Visual Arts from UNLV in 2007 and a BFA in Painting in 2000 from the University of Texas, Austin in 2000. James Hough's work was included in the 2007 exhibition "Diaspora" at the Las Vegas Art Museum, curated by Dave Hickey. He received an MFA in painting from UNLV in 2004 and a BFA in Drawing and Painting and a BA in English Literature from the University of North Texas, Denton, TX in 2000.
