OMR is pleased to present 2 Feet in 1 Bucket of Ice, Yann Gerstberger's second solo show at the gallery.

Created in his studio on the Pacific coast of Mexico, these new works encompass Gerstberger’s multi-faceted practice, including paintings and tapestries produced with an original technique conceived by the artist: he glues hand-dyed cotton fibers (originally from mops) on canvas to form colorful surfaces. Inspired by patterns found in Mexican popular culture, art history and nature, the artist blurs the boundaries of abstraction and figuration, traditional techniques and mass-consumption products, suggesting craftsmanship as a possible continuation of the modernist pictorial project.
