Sculpture, Painting Exhibition

Central Carolina Community College Sculpture Program's lead instructor, Phillip Ashe, is exhibiting his latest body of work in the PAF Gallery at the North Carolina Arts Incubator, 223 North Chatham Avenue, Siler City, North Carolina 27344, opening November 18, from 6:00pm to 9:00pm.  The exhibition, "Syntheticism", will run through December 23.

 

His contemporary sculpture and paintings are a culmination of the last four years while at CCCC and are an exploration of odd juxtapositions of material, both synthetic and natural, as metaphor.

Phillip received his B.F.A. in Sculpture from East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina and his M. F. A. in Art from University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He began his teaching career as an adjunct at Mitchell Community College teaching sculpture, design, and ceramics while gaining experience as a practicing sculptor.  In 2007 he became lead instructor at Central Carolina Community College's Sculpture Program.

We would like to invite you to view this challenging body of work  While here visit the CCCC student gallery at 138 North Chatham Avenue to see the latest sculpture and pottery produced by the current class.
