Andrew Schrock’s The Harness of Chaosycronous opens this Friday, January 6th at Parse Gallery. Schrock’s work explores the thin line between premeditation and chaos. His sculptures are made by expanding forms through different methods such as high pressure water or explosions. This exhibition features Schrock’s work along with work by the collective Rabid Hands. Opening reception begins at 6.30P.

New Orleans-based hydro-formed steelworker and welding artist Andrew Shrock will create an interactive space within Parse Gallery with the help of Rabid Hands, opening Jan 6th, from 6-10pm. Should be a wonderful showing.
