Jack Larimore: Bonding

When experiencing nature and her complex relationships, New Jersey-based maker Jack Larimore is drawn to the positive bonds that coexist with the challenges of competition. His creative muse pulls from this nuanced interplay, where he perceives patterns and processes that speak to resilience, adaptability, and interconnectedness. He sees bonds materializing through the process of making, ranging from the personal and domestic rituals of procreation, meal preparation, fostering a home, and nurturing a family, to the more globally recognized acts of producing music and stories.

The works in this exhibition are an intuitive and philosophical exploration of those stories and these acts of bonding. In essence, Bonding isn’t just a collection of artworks; it’s a journey into the soul of a maker and his profound relationship with his process and the materials that fuel it.
