The heavily layered and reworked surfaces in Brian Dickerson's painted wood constructions reveal a deeply felt process of exploration. Each work contains hidden forms and apertures suggesting almost inaccessible mystery. Using mixed media and wood construction, these sculptural paintings offer the viewer an opportunity for quiet reflection amidst the dislocations and uncertainty of the surrounding world. Assertive and strong in composition, they lead the mind into contemplation of the sublime.
Dickerson's work has been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums including Kouros Gallery, New York, OK Harris Works of Art, New York, Seraphin Gallery, Philadelphia, PA , Museum of the University of Wyoming, Butler Institute of American Art, National Academy of Design, Woodmere Museum, Opalka Gallery, Sage College, and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
