SUMMARY:Wild & Free
DESCRIPTION:Sunlit shoreline landscape oil by Brianna Camp of Fairfax\, Va. \nEmbrace the notion of uninhibited emotion\, encapsulating freedom in artistic works in clay\, glass\, on paper and canvases. \nIndependence Day with an unfiltered twist lets creativity run wild. See unhinged sculptures\, engagingly altered forms and brushstrokes that trail away. Minds will wander with wonder on meanderings of color and splashes of light. \nEmbrace drips\, drops and smears as wabisabi — handmade perfection in imperfection — is the mission statement of the month. Artists are tilting foundations\, ruffling rims and letting loose. They are abstracting the abstract and slathering on impressionism onto expressionism. Shop uncategorized and unlabelled art that is boundless. \nFreeform marbled stoneware figural sculptures by Elke Seefeldt of Arlington\, Va. \nAltered sap0phire oil can woodfired vase by Brian Grow of Temple Hills\, Md. \nFind awesome asymmetry\, edgy forms and concepts. Find figural sculptures of three expressive geometric stones. Raw and earthy woodfired works serve as vases\, tealights and drinkware spattered with ash\, surfaces kissed by fire. Veer from the expected with oval\, off-center platters and casseroles swirled with pattern and attitude. These pieces challenge every tidy assumption about what fine pottery should be or look like. \nKilnformed glass wild “Vibrarion Bowl” gives off seismic vibes by Sandi Martina of Woodbridge\, Va. \nKilnformed glass seems gelatinous as it melts and slumps with a mind of its own offering surprises of transparency tangled mixed with opaque accents. It’s art that was guided\, not controlled and no two pieces emerge the same. \nExpressive brushwork in bold strokes and fluid gestures honor the spirit of Eastern ink painting\, where the mark made in motion spontaneously colors outside the lines. See stalking tigers\, wild horses and birds in flight on stoneware\, porcelain and paper. Canvas meets chaos with oil paintings that celebrate gestural freedom on canvas and copper\, featuring inspired brushwork\, daring color and compositions that trust the instinct over establishment. \nOriginal eco-botanical print by Elke Seefeldt of Arlington\, Va. \nStoneware spiraled off-center oval casserole with flared handles by Scott Kaye of Arlington\, Va. \nWhether seeking a fired vessel with genuine wildness baked in\, a glass piece that surprised even its maker\, or a painting that startles the heart\, Fire On Gallery delivers fiercely original art with nothing held back. \n3-D gallery Fire On Studio 22 offers various treatments of glass\, pottery and more on the first floor of the Torpedo Factory Art Center 11  a.m. to 6 p.m. daily and will be open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday July 10  for the Torpedo Factory Art Center’s United States 250th Birthday Late Night; “Wild & Free” show runs July 1 through 31\, 2026. \nFollow @studio.fireon for gallery updates and artist features.
