    Whole Halves by Tom Doyle
    Description

    The Stone Tower Gallery presents Navigations, a solo exhibition by artist Tom Doyle. In this exhibit, Doyle uses clay, wood, and plaster to create tactile artifacts that live somewhere between the historical and the functional. Many of these sanded and worked objects take the form of low-tech tools designed to build with precision. Other sculptural works and drawings reference celestial navigation and how we construct ways to find our next north star. Text on the surface takes the form of word searches, providing linguistic clues to the artifact’s function. This body of work speaks to the ambiguities of wayfinding and decision-making in our world despite our craving more accuracy. Doyle creates his work to remind us of the beauty and phenomena of the everyday through seemingly benign objects.
