Artist Reception: July 1, 2011 6pm - 8pm

Where I End You Begin is a two-person exhibit featuring the individual and collaborative art of Leon Alesi and Hawkeye Glenn. Alesi is an Austin based artist incorporating portrait photography with a narrative emphasis; storytelling through images. There is an innate tension in Alesi’s portraits that is unique. Within the context of personal spaces he is able to dig deeper and get beyond the veneer of the standard portrait. Hawkeye Glenn, an Austin native, is an artist and craftsman working in wood, metal, stone and clay. This exhibit will showcase Glenn’s installations that speak to the moment, the space and to the narrative portraits of Alesi.

Alesi’s narrative portraits searching for connectivity, intimate moments, and unfolding vulnerability between photographer and subject ... where I end, you begin ... Glenn’s sculptures and ceramic and wood compositions created to explore the intersection between the divine and human moments ...
