Dock Space Annex Looking curated by Rachael Duke features Joan Fabian, Vincent Fink, Emma Garcia, and Jillian Sortore for October 2024.

Joan Fabian is a contemporary artist exhibiting for over 40 years. “In this series of works I worked intuitively and obsessively in painting and collage, drawing a collective of memory, place and visual storytelling.” Joan Fabian’s colorful, intricate, interactive pieces pull viewers in for a longer look.

Vincent Fink is an award-winning artist/Renaissance Man working out of his studio in the Houston Arts District. “My goal is to balance both hemispheres of the mind, all aspects of the human condition; logic and emotion, order and chaos. To form a link between dreaming and waking life.” Vincent Fink’s paintings are full of complexities and upon closer inspection even more hidden treasures.

Emma Garcia received her BFA from UTSA and is a multi-disciplinary conceptual artist whose work is very processed based. “The challenge of being understood and seen has become a driving force in my work. I want the viewer to be confronted by my insecurities and vulnerability.” Emma Garcia’s 2nd Place ceramic sculptures demand a second look.

Jillian Sortore received her MFA from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville and is currently a Professor at UTSA. Sortore creates wearable and sculptural objects from wood and metal exploring avian characteristics, instincts, and sexual dimorphism as a metaphor for human relationships.

Each of these artworks are best appreciated in person. Come take a look and keep on looking.
