Ken Craft: A Never Finished Light
(Dallas) Ro2 Art is proud to present A Never Finished Light, a solo exhibition by Dallas-based artist Ken Craft. Known for merging representational art with conceptual themes, Craft explores the complexities of evolution, change, and our place within the natural world. His latest series draws inspiration from Richard Dawkins' reflections on the fluidity of species over time, depicting forms that transform and merge—rabbits that blur into clouds, constellations shifting across billions of years, and shadows morphing into new shapes. Through this vibrant and thought-provoking imagery, Craft invites viewers to ponder the interconnectedness of all life and the poetic beauty found in the ever-changing tapestry of nature.
Craft, who balances his artistic practice with a nearly 30-year career as a professional firefighter, brings a unique perspective to his work, combining his fascination with natural history and storytelling. His paintings often incorporate narrative elements, including written text and comic-inspired imagery, blending the scientific with the imaginative. As he prepares to retire from the fire service in January 2025, Craft looks forward to furthering his artistic journey and deepening his exploration of the natural world.
A Never Finished Light runs from September 21 to October 26, 2024, with an opening reception on September 21 from 7-10pm at Ro2 Art Gallery at 2606 Bataan Street, Dallas, TX, 75212
