Reid Flock and David Thai: Neo-Modernism


 
 
Two artists working with silica-based materials - one clay (Reid Flock), the other glass (David Thai).  Both artists are pushing the boundaries of the media making it lighter and thinner while working with highly demanding surface treatments.  This exhibition explores the similarities of contemporary design aesthetics arising from advanced production methods, while contrasting the characteristic of these two related silica materials.  Flock (Hamilton, Ontario) brings his experience of working in Hitachi, Japan to his designs, while Thai (Toronto, Ontario) has made a name for himself in Canada.
