PETER EVERETT / Le Méridien Salt Lake City Downtown

Peter Everett’s work explores forms that have an immediate visual power, physicality, and a sense of urgency growing from a place just out of sight. The patterns and shapes are often derived from visual phenomena experienced in transitional periods–between sleep and consciousness or in a meditative state. Marks and time build and accumulate in the work, which favors a physicality and directness of engagement. Patterns, forms, and structures mutate and grow taking on new identities and interacting with each other. The work is additive in nature and favors complexity leaning towards a hyper-stimulated visual experience.
