fivesevendelle is pleased to present Half Life, an exhibition of new work by Corey Corcoran. Through paintings, mixed media, and site-specific installation, Corcoran creates dense visual ecosystems. Using everything from plaster to watercolor and faux fur, his landscapes teeter on the edge of collapse and fruition. Half-dead bodies fill these transitory spaces as gods of destruction or biological fodder for its change. Color, texture, and pattern act as the primordial soup from which the notion of progress and finality may arise.
Corey Corcoran is a Boston-based painter whose work has been exhibited nationally at such venues as OCCCA in Santa Ana, CA and K Space Contemporary in Corpus Christi, TX. Corcoran received a BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and Design in 2007 and is a recipient of the prestigious Stephen D. Paine Scholarship Award from the Boston Art Dealers Association as well as the New Art ‘08 award from the Kingston Gallery. His work was featured in the experimental publication Apenest Volume II as well as breach dynamics, a book produced by the international creative consortium ROJO®.
fivesevendelle is a creative project space in the Mission Hill neighborhood of Boston located in a brownstone dating from 1875. The space is dedicated to providing a professional exhibition environment and a platform for creative interaction within the surrounding communities.
