Charles Gallagher exhibits an assemblage sculptures and collages using scavenged materials and found objects collected on daily walks, a practice he traces back to beach-combing on Long Island and coastal Maine.
Each piece comes together slowly as disparate materials are placed within a particular composition over time. The selecting, balancing and stacking of elements within each piece echoes the process of laying down stones to form a dry stone wall. Gallagher is sensitive to the latent potential of his gathered materials just as he can see the inherent qualities of a piece of stone.
Gallagher’s pieces can appear whimsical or formally minimalist, the free and inventive use of materials providing a rich visual language of textured histories and hidden narratives. Gallagher’s assemblages have the spirit of a totem, the imbued meaning unclear but powerfully present.
