Instinct & Symbol: A Collaborative Exhibition

Kevin Max and former resident artist Candace Max (formerly Candace Thompson) come together for a collaborative exhibition showcasing their distinct yet complementary visual styles. The collection features individual works from each artist alongside select collaborative pieces that explore themes of memory, time, and layered identity through acrylic, graphite, and oil stick on canvas.

Kevin’s approach, often described as abstract figurative with primitive pop influences, is defined by bold energy and instinctive mark-making, drawing inspiration from artists like Paul Klee and Frank Auerbach. Candace’s work brings a refined yet visceral perspective, building symbolic layers through expressive color fields and textured detail.

Together, their work creates a dynamic visual dialogue that blends imagination and reality, offering a powerful and immersive artistic experience.
