Frey considered herself a 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘶𝘳 – a junk accumulator – by reinterpreting collectable figurines, philosophical ideas, personal experience, and color theory freely to create new meaning in ceramic and bronze. Her works on paper and paintings echo the sculptures, creating a dynamic back-and-forth conversation between media.⁣ ⁣ Viola Frey⁣ 𝘈𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵'𝘴 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘥/𝘚𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘰/𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥: 𝘔𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘯 𝘉𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘚𝘶𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘗𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘈𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘭, 1988⁣ Pastel on paper⁣ 48 x 64 inches⁣ ⁣ Visit the link in our bio to plan your visit!⁣ #FriezeMasters2020⁣ ⁣ Images © Artists’ Legacy Foundation / Licensed by ARS, NY.
