Tanya Calhoun unleashes short stories in her hot glue ‘Sculpture Illustrations’. Drawing upon her personal symbolic language, and influenced by geometry, perspective, and composition, her abstract narratives create landscapes, topographies, and Worlds, with hints of architecture, galaxies, and the chaotic forces of nature in play. Her creations are comprised of hot glue, wire, thread, and spray paint. During the making, this recipe of materials manifests into various ‘Series’ of work, including suspended, sewn, and wall-mounted presentations. Tanya Calhoun is a Chicago-based contemporary artist, currently represented by ALMA Art & Interiors. She is a BFA graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and has exhibited both nationally and internationally. Her studio is located at Subterra Studios & Gallery, in West Town, Chicago, Illinois.
