Widely shown local Brooklyn artist Jim Osman exhibits his beautifully rendered objects that blurr the lines between painting and sculpture with great wit, charm and beauty.
Osman uses drawing as a building tool to bring physicality into his work—whether by the thickness of a line, or the way paint sits on a page creating an edge and subtle shadow. The subject matter—a mixture of architectural and furniture forms—helps push/pull the visceral quality of objects on a flat surface. In this way Osman creates a uniquely active conversation between drawing and sculpture.
