It is from this context of ironic and contrastive social philosophies that Marcia Kure's abstracted figures take their shape. Structures and systems of societal constraint manifest as inscribed rectangles from which Kure's subjects emerge or descend. Their spacial occupation is thus never settled, and consequently neither is the viewer's eye. Instead, Kure's work provides an experience of suspended kineticism that charges and activates the relationships between subject, and object, and audience.Exhibitions
