This exhibition explores the creative process -- where ideas come from, how they transform as they move from person to person and medium to medium. It is about what happens when artworks inspire artworks across media: ideas are transformed, something is kept, something else dropped, small things that seemed incidental to one piece become central to another, key ideas shift in unanticipated ways. And as the transformations occur again and again -- book to film to painting to music, etc. -- the original impulse gets refracted and mutated until it's unrecognizable. But the whole chain is still traceable to that first impulse: without it, the rest never would have happened.
In 1962, James Jones wrote a book titled The Thin Red Line, which director Terrence Malick interpreted in his 1998 movie of the same name. Ben Holbrow was particularly intrigued by certain scenes and concepts in Malick’s movie. Over the past five years he has interpreted them in a series of paintings. The series begins with reference points from the movie and the later works explore the same concepts, but in the context of his own personal experience. Dan Holbrow was unaware of the origins of Ben’s work, and sought to take the image and the title and build music and narrative around them. He wrote a series of songs imaginatively extrapolating from the scenes depicted in Ben's paintings, resulting in words and sounds that are at once far removed from and strangely resonant with the sources on which Ben drew.
Corey Bryson was aware of the link between all the works. He has viewed the movie and Ben’s work, and listened to Dan’s music. He then responded to the possibility of clarity even when sounded by external chaos of a severe situation.
Finally, the three collaborated on the multimedia piece, building on and responding to each other's work to produce something greater than the sum of its parts. In this exhibition, the artists stand in each other's light, at once illuminating and casting shadows over each other's work.
