Gabriel Boyce’s installation Shirts and Stones plays with material through gesture creating a visceral landscape. The title of the installation clearly defines the material whereas the installation itself is an abstracted reference to the artist’s experience. The mark making is performative whether it be a stone found on a walk or a self-portrait reflected in polished granite, the objects are conceived through action. The semiotic nature of the objects themselves beg for meaning whereas in conclusion they are absurd by comparison. There in the absurdity the artist finds oneself, in the studio, laughing at their own jokes.

Gabriel Boyce holds an MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and a BFA from Louisiana State University. He is the senior member at Vox Populi.
