JAYJAY is very proud to open the art season in Sacramento 2010 with delicate and mysterious new works on paper and linen from Eleanor Wood, along with UOP sculpture professor, Trent Burkett and his quiet and powerful ceramics. This is the second featured exhibit at JAYJAY for Wood, and the premier exhibit for Burkett.

Wood makes delicate profound mixed media work on paper that refers greatly to her process, but in the end is pure poetry. Wood makes art that is reminiscent of scientific close-ups of skin and bark, sewn together and stained. Sewn with what and stained by what? These are other-worldly quiet scholarly studies of materials layered and superimposed using waxed paper, wax colored with oil bar; embossed-like compositions encased and displayed for our consideration.

Burkett received his MA at CSU, Sacramento and his MFA at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, MN. Associate professor of sculpture/ceramics at UOP since 2006, Burkett’s title of this exhibit refers to his recent shift in the production of his work from “fine art” to the notions of prefabricated works, multiples, in slip cast ceramic forms, perforated and powder coated panels, and repetitious wall mounted cabinets. Burkett’s influences range from his love of the Sierra Nevada landscape to his understanding of Eastern aesthetics and in this exhibit these passions are explored less literally than his past work, however, the simplicity and utilitarianism of the objects in this show retain his vision.
