Affiliated Artist    Christopher Martin Hoff Images | Resume    Linda Hodges Gallery presents Christopher Martin Hoff in his second solo exhibition at the gallery. Focusing on the built environment, Hoff's paintings are at once part historical artifact and part surveyor's blueprint. Created on site and painstakingly composed, his paintings are not the product of one moment, but rather the documentation of countless carefully observed moments. The title of his current exhibition, "Formwork," refers to the temporary or permanent molds into which concrete is poured during the building process. States Hoff: "If you have seen a modern construction project... you have most likely seen formwork... While beautiful in its own right as a kind of brightly colored, kinetic sculpture, I also find it to have a certain resonance within the context of my creative process. For me it speaks of positive and negative spaces, of potentiality and becoming... an approach to painting that is "aware" of its own internal formal construction."
