Laurie Trock @ The Westmoreland

Laurie's new pop-up show @ The Westmoreland Museum's temporary space surprised me. Not entirely content to push her ethereal linear cuttings and installations, she moved towards painting.

Many works involve scanning hand made cutouts and tricking a laser cutter into shaving away layers of plywood to create inlays. The results are surprisingly sensitive and human.

Gabe Felice Mural in Greensburg

Still getting together my posts from my Greensburg trip. One unexpected highlight was coming across this mural by Greensburg/Pittsburgh artist Gabe Felice. Most of the other murals we came across were pretty tame and historical.

The size, is for a mural pretty small, but this piece is loaded with color and content. I like the way the design works with the structure of the brick surface in a creative, playful way.

It was Sunday, so almost everything was shut down, however the little block, the mural is on, is now home to a few stores, a hipster coffee shop/gallery and Seton Hill's new art studio building.
