T
he initial spark for this exhibit came to Robert after attending a small photo exhibit. The artist’s work consisted of images of a homeless man he befriended. “I had a wonderful conversation with the artist. Not only talking about his process and the man in the images, but also about meditation, silence, connection and purpose - subjects that are a big part of my life.” home•less•bound•ness is not about the homeless themselves as much as it is about our thoughts and perceptions. I’ve mixed language and wordplay, objects and images with random and unlikely materials to spark conversations about homelessness, community, indifference and over-consumption. Pure Green Living loves the recycled nature of the exhibit of course! Common materials used in uncommon ways. See more and purchase Robert’s work at: www.rmateodiago.com
10% of sales from this exhibit will be donated to Soldier On; a non-profit organization dedicated to housing homeless veterans. To see more, or to inquire about purchasing, visit: Kolok Gallery 228 Main Street, Suite 155 Williamstown, MA 01267 kolokgallery.com
