ProjectRoom is a small exhibition space created in April 2008 to promote contemporary artists in a spirit of collaboration and risk.
ProjectRoom works with emerging and mid-career artists to gain critical recognition and broader national exposure while presenting
to our immediate community the efforts and ideas of challenging and original artists.
Colin C. Smith
Tales Of Static Liquidity
Simultaneously non-traditional and familiar, abstract and recognizable, high-tech and hand-made; Omaha's Colin C. Smith continues to refine his style of superflat, seamless and multi-layered paintings which incorporate the visual rhythms and the beats of mass-media, magazines, music, streaming video, TV and over-saturated monitors. Smith uses brushes, stencils, air guns, sandpaper, patience, and other tools to apply 50 to 200 layers of pigmented resins and polymers to thin, shaped, aluminum panels; creating dense oceans of colors, shapes and patterns that reference the blitzkrieg of data that sails past our 21st century receptors during the normal course of life.
