Details
Description
This contemporary artwork features a striking visual composition. The main element is a large, rounded, golden-colored form that resembles a pillow or cushion. At the center of this form, there is a vibrant, purple circular motif surrounded by a colorful, abstract pattern that appears to be made up of various small shapes and textures. The overall effect is visually striking, with the warm tones of the pillow-like form contrasting with the bold, dazzling pattern at the center. The distinctive combination of shapes, textures, and colors suggests an experimental, playful approach to materiality and form, likely reflecting the artist's intention to challenge traditional notions of sculpture and encourage the viewer to consider the relationship between everyday objects and fine art. ...

Dianna Molzan
B.1972, AmericanDianna Molzan was born in 1972 in Tacoma. She lives and works in Los Angeles.

Various Small Fires
Los Angeles, Seoul, DallasVarious Small Fires (Los Angeles /Dallas /Seoul) began as a series of conversations with artists and curators in Esther Kim Varet’s Venice Beach kitchen while working on her doctoral dissertation. VSF debuted in Hollywood as an official gallery in 2015 with a roster of artists and its current Johnston MarkLee Architects-designed building. The Hollywood gallery contains three exhibition spaces, a unique sound corridor, and an outdoor gallery. VSF’s exhibition program explores several curatorial lines: climate, equality, and an international conversation. The gallery is known for offering artists debut shows, creating intergenerational conversations among the artists on its roster, and solidifying artists’ legacies within art history. In 2019, VSF opened a second location in the Hannam neighbourhood of Seoul, South Korea, followed recently this Spring by VSFs third outpost in Dallas, Texas. While Varet has very personal connections to both locations, they are also superlative art communities. These expansions emphasise the gallery’s commitment to innovation and global dialogue in the twenty-first century. In 2021, VSF became a member of the Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA). ...
