Gallery Review #1
I use paper to create a world of fiction that challenges the viewer to suspend disbelief
and venture into my fabricated reality (Clary). This quote is said by himself, Charles Clary,
who creates his art through the use of hand cut paper and acrylic paint. Clary is a very successful
artist, as he has received many awards such as an Award of Merit twice in 2004 and 2005. In the
local gallery, Brett Wesley, Clarys artwork is displayed in an exhibit called Paper Form. This
gallery has a unique look on the outside and was very spacious on the inside. As you walk inside,
you see stairs that lead up to other artists exhibitions. All of the art displayed looked of high
quality. The gallery itself was quiet, yet there was people to answer questions always around,
which was helpful. Other artists such as Francis and Francis and Michael Wardle are currently
being displayed as well in the Brett Wesley gallery. Although there were many pieces of work to
Gestation Movement No.2 is three dimensional with an organic form, meaning the shape is
irregular. This piece has color that varies throughout. The foreground shows tints of yellow,
green and orange. As your eyes move to the background, the shades of blue, orange, and green
become more apparent. Both regular and irregular lines are used to show the shape. Looking at
the top of the piece, you can see most of the lines are actual lines created by paper as well as the
use of paint, and they show a continuous mark. Although this is a small scale to view, it is
obvious that the shape, color and lines stand out the most.
In addition, Hugg-A-Diddle Workup Movement No.7 shows the illusion of space. The
paper in this artwork is overlapped which can imply a sense of depth. In the image below on the

Looking at the top view of the image on the right, the pink lines in the background make the blue
outline in the foreground more visible. There are many elements that are noticeable, but color

another intensify, which makes them also appear more
saturated. While the lines are definateley irregular, they display a sense of wild or chaotic
behaviour. Additionally, in the image to the right the outline in pink makes the colorful lines
more clear as it defines the space. It seems as thought Clary created this image as he was
thinking because he made the lines very loose and uncontroled. Lastly, perspective is shown in
the image to the left as one point perspective . When looking at the close up picture, the lines in
the foreground pop because of the vanishing point in the place it is in. In this piece of paper
artwork, Clary made it possible to easily identify several elements to describe his work.
obvious that the artist had the same vision in mind for all of his work. It was noticable is that in
Patifasmic Plasmatic Gestation Movement No.2, Hugg-A-Diddle Workup Movement No.7, and
Dilaudi Diddle Movement No.2, Clary wanted to include the elements of line, color, and
perspective. Although he used a differents types of principles of each element in the three pieces,
it made it clear that each contrasted one another. After looking at Charles Clarys work of art, it
