'Balance in disorder'

“Ever Radiate the Truth Ever” (mixed media), by McKay Otto, in the show “Unconscious Equilibrium,’’ at Atelier Newport (R.I.), Aug. 10-Sept. 12.The gallery says:“This featured group of artists finds balance in disorder, influences in opposing forces, harmony in mundane daily tasks, and transcendent practices during chaos. In quiet solitude, these artists gain balance during a time when our world would suggest otherwise. “Upon further reflection on meditation, and transcendence, the work on view finds a harmony through tessellations, a regular pattern made up of flat shapes repeated and joined together without any gaps or overlaps. These shapes do not all need to be the same, but the pattern should repeat. This work attempts to reflect these rhythmic, natural developing and reoccurring patterns in nature, reflected in tidal and gravitational forces, and how we as humans, react to with these powerful shifts - seasons, moons, tides —and our delicate balance.’’
