Into the Half-light
Senior exhibition of works by Aaron Earley
BFA candidate in Sculpture and Painting/Drawing

"Into the Half-light" is a phrase I deemed appropriate for this exhibition, as essentially I am referencing several subjects that are currently experiencing the twilight years of their lives. Similarly, the natural and man-made objects integrated into my work were discovered after they had already begun phasing out of existence. Of the Boeing B-17 and the 12,700 that were made during World War II, less than ten still exist intact. Conservation efforts are costly and few in number. Similarly, the crewmen that first flew them are reaching the ends of their lives as well. Within the next 5 - 10 years, the histories of these men and the aircraft they flew will officially be handed over as something of the intangible past. Much in the same, the Rorschach inkblot test is falling out of use, as many leaders in the fields of psychiatry view it as wholly unreliable, if not dangerously misleading.

The four series of work represented in this exhibition are from my senior years in Sculpture and Painting/Drawing, and in those two years I have found myself working on these series simultaneously. The past six months or so has resulted in the most recent work - strange amalgamations that involve overlapping ideas from the four series.

Deleted 10 or so works I don't wish to be associated with anymore. One of those instances when you look back on your teenage choices and instead of experiencing nostalgia embarrassment sets in.

I didn't exactly brush through here with a fine-toothed comb, but I just deleted around 30 submissions from my gallery. Insufferable garbage, mostly.

The anime crap is next.
Just waiting for the right day.

I am going to start a petition to add "Um" and "Uh" to the list of official transitional expressions, just to satiate the handicap of many of my peers.

I've come to terms with a lot of things as of late, but coincidentally and contradictorally - talking about them would require time and effort I don't care to spend. My bad.

So, for anyone who reading this, I have uploaded a cell phone picture of my current work in progress to the "webcam" section of my deviant art front page. If you are on the front page, quit reading this and scroll down. Then scroll back up here.

I will upload lots of new work - later this week. Maybe next week.

Also, I'm thinking about selling everything I've done so far in art school for like $25 - $50 a piece. I just don't care about it and I'm tired of looking at it.

In closing, I keep misreading the popular sports brand name "Titleist" as "titliest." Unfortunately, the people who tend to wear this brand are hardly ever in fact the most titliest of individuals and I feel a bit of disappointment every time.
