About the Exhibition

Billy Kearins presents an evolving series built on one control image: an orange circle hovering right of a blue square. Chosen for its simple balance of opposites—square/circle, cool/warm, static/moving—each work keeps color and relative orientation consistent while exploring new media. The exhibition spans drawings, fiberglass sculpture, screenprints, furniture, film, textiles, and typography from small scale to larger works.
