Preview: Jen Stark’s “Vortextural” at Cooper Cole Gallery

Jen Stark (featured in Hi-Fructose Vol. 20) apprehends metaphysical questions with her paper sculptures, creating harmonious rhythms of color with mathematical precision. Using careful craftsmanship, Stark layers sheets of paper until they take on 3D, Op Art-inspired forms with surprising depth. Set up on pedestals, sometimes these sculptures resemble geometric altars or wormholes that might take you into another dimension if you look too closely. Stark has a solo show at Cooper Cole Gallery in Toronto titled "Vortextural" opening on July 5. Take a look at some of the work in the show, all images courtesy of Cooper Cole Gallery.
