Rich Fedorchak – Collage and Assemblage
and Artist Friends

About Rich Fedorchak: After a 35 year career as a registered nurse working primarily in pediatric critical care and pediatric hematology/oncology, I am now retired and devoting most of my time to my artistic pursuits, which I have been active in since the mid-1970’s. I produce work in collage and assemblage, and experimental cinema. Recently I had a solo exhibit of my work at AVA Gallery and Art Center in Lebanon, NH. My films have been screened at various juried festivals in the US and Canada including The 8Fest, the Winnepeg Underground Film Festival, the Montreal Underground Film Festival, and the Haverhill Experimental Film Festival.

Charlie Hunter at Gallery 444 PTown

Week long show 6/5-12. Opening on Friday night 6/7.

This is Charlie Hunter’s first exhibition even though he has been a professional photographer about 10 years. Charlie grew up in the  scenic and rural Finger Lakes region of New York State. During the 90’s he spent summers in Provincetown and fell for the area and then lived in San Francisco for nearly 20 years. In 2017 he returned to the East Coast dividing is between the central New York area and Provincetown where he felt he always belonged. He draws inspiration from the world around him and as he explains, “I don’t often consciously recognize why I find a particular scene perfect or beautiful, I’m just driven to do it. It’s only when I’m looking at my photographs as a whole that I see various patterns in my work: empty space, softness, calm and there is often a darkness to them with strong shadows and silhouettes. There is also a fairly consistent proportion to my photos that I cannot articulate but which just seems right to me. I find it fascinating how we can let our subconscious guide us in this way, when we let it, and I do my best to mine do so.”

ARTIST STATEMENT

Matthias has been working within the arts all his life in various aspects. His goal is to integrate painting, music, film, photography, acting, narrative, and poetry cohesively, while drawing from life, dreams, symbols, myth, philosophy and psychology.

“In a general reflection on my art and life, I feel that the unconscious and conscious landscape hemispheres collide creating positive and negative tension within our lives. The unconscious has an existence of time immemorial within your myth, while our conscious life ego awakes daily to a fresh new day. So I question; How do we exist through these our entire lives, shaping us toward the past, present and future as one totality? In which way does the essence of it all give meaning to who we are and contribute to our interactions with each other, our earth and universe?

It has been a lifelong search and journey revealing my art through these philosophical and psychological constructs. Art that coexists and works in conjunction with these constructs and with each other:

painting, music, poetry, photography, film and narrative. The landscape hemispheres and archetypes create new paths to follow and show themselves as personal empirical motifs within the art abstractly. They prove to be part of the memory, dream, reflection symbiosis. It is all much a mystery and interesting pursuit.”
