Big Bend instructor featured in Spokane art show
MOSES LAKE — Work by Big Bend Community College art instructor Dustin Regul will be featured at a Spokane gallery next month.
His show rifts & margins opens at Saranac Art Projects April 4 and will be on display throughout the month. The gallery is open to the public Fridays and Saturdays from Noon to 8 p.m.
“rifts & margins explores the liminal spaces between established reality and undiscovered potential,” said Regul. “The exhibition title refers specifically to those threshold spaces; the gaps, edges, and boundaries where the familiar world of representational certainty gives way to the ambiguous territories of abstraction.”
Paintings in this exhibition feature imagery borrowed from 19th-century Realism and recognizable objects juxtaposed with abstract forms and color fields. Regul said he wants his work to invite viewers to navigate the tension between what they recognize and what remains open to interpretation.
