Flinn Gallery's Elemental

Elemental showcases the work of twelve members of the Boston Sculptors Gallery. The sculptors use clay, fabric, metal, plastic, stone, and wood, often in inventive combinations. Though the materials, scales, and techniques vary widely, each piece was selected around the unifying theme of elemental. This concept is intentionally open-ended, evoking ideas of the primitive and fundamental, the classical elements of nature, and the chemical building blocks that form the world around us. Collectively, the works reflect the artists’ shared inspiration: the beauty and fragility of the natural world and our deep, often complex relationship with it.
