"Thinly Veiled" to Debut at Royse Contemporary this October!

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Sept. 28, 2024 - PRLog -- Royse Contemporary is thrilled to present  "Thinly Veiled", the solo exhibition of artist Cherie Buck-Hutchison. This much anticipated collection by Buck-Hutchison features "work that reifies veiled psychological behavior shrouded within the misuse of ascendancy." The artist explores the current situation women find themselves in by using materials associated with women's work. "Diaphanous layers reveal and conceal reconstructed dishtowels, freezer paper and vintage packaging layered onto images of public landscape sites, explains Buck-Hutchison.

Cherie Buck-Hutchison negotiates an uncomfortable agreement between authority, intervention and magical thinking to consider the metaphoric through transparent layers. Her superimpositions of layered photographs on gossamer silk organza and other transparent materials create odd alterations of visibility and depth of field. Her work includes photography, objects, performance, poetry and video art.

For Thinly Veiled, her use of a narrative loops the viewer through a filmy membrane separating women from freedom. From the encouragement of ideas to layering as an act of magically dismissing controlling lifestyles to self-determination regarding one's hair style decisions to a call to action, her work investigates the social landscape of contemporary conversations surrounding women. Recalling her personal history of living with the discomfort of an extreme cult with no choices compels her to explore the future for women while remembering the past can repeat itself. Her art disrupts the traditional lens of the monumental landscape narrative through investigating the tools of marginalization within the lands of power.

Cherie Buck-Hutchison has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Intermedia from Arizona State University. She is a recipient of the several grants including the Arizona Commission for the Arts' Research and Development Grant. Her work is shown nationally and her work is represented locally at Royse Contemporary in Scottsdale, Arizona. She is currently exhibiting at ASU Art Museum in the "Notes on Motherhood" exhibition and recently collaborated with Scottsdale's Poet Laureate, Lois Roma-Deeley in the Inspired "Imaginations: Women of Consequence" exhibition at the Heritage Connection Civic Center Library Gallery in Scottsdale.

Royse Contemporary will host a special artist reception from 6:00pm until 9:00pm. Patrons will have the opportunity to meet the featured artist, learn about her captivating multimedia artworks, enjoy wine, treats, shopping and more!
