John Seal: While There Is Still Life to Live
Closing reception + painting unveiling
“The easels begin their life in the exhibition dangerously close to being a prop; so the activity that happens during the course of the show, the painting of these paintings, has to be aimed completely at undoing the prop-ness of those paintings, and push them into the space of being real paintings. I hope I can do it. If I can’t, I’ll feel like I really failed. But failure is an important part of making art too.”
– John Seal, excerpt from his interview with 356 Mission about “While There Is Still Life to Live”
