SUMMARY:Physicality: Tapping into Tactile
DESCRIPTION:“Late August Light” oil pastel by Brianna Camp of Fairfax\, Va. \nUnplug and get real with clay\, glass\, paint and paper. In a digitized world\, traditional artists offer physical comfort with pottery\, paintings and glass originals at Fire On Gallery. \nAllow artists to entertain as feelings trend toward concrete rather than abstract. Sensory sensations stimulate with actual original art objects. A mug in the hand speaks volumes and physical a \nrt achieves tactile nirvana with textures and touch. Depth is beyond digital as artists create shady creations with gnarly roots\, playing with culture\, contrast and color. \nBreak away from monitors and dress a wall with handpainted ceramic tiles and lyrical paintings. Metallic underpinnings create a glow in an oil on copper painting. Bring home a personal spirit animal with compositions of pandas\, tigers\, capybaras and opossums. \nWoodfired face jug with porcelain cone detailing by Brian Grow of Temple Hills\, Md. \nNature-inspired kilnformed glass ‘Organic Bowl in Green’ stacked\, striped plate by Sandi Martina of Woodbridge\, Va. \nLimit sceentime and gain wholehearted pleasure from bits and bobs\, cherishing handheld micro masterpieces of classical eve torsos and personal brushpainted ringholders. Encourage emotions instead of emoji by choosing abiding art pieces made by happy hands 🙂 \nGrasp earthy originals over the imaginary. Stoneware dishware is rustic\, reflecting ash and fire from natural wood-fueled firing or sleek and splashy with cross dipped glazes. Kilnformed glass captures a ray of light\, tidal phenomenons and a magical rainbow. Indigo botanical eco prints are made from foliage and native plants. \nReach out and touch something instead of engaging ether by relishing food and drink presented with artisian tableware. Take cooler sips from ceramic tumblers and contemplate fruit in a spectacular server of kiln formed glass or spiraled clay. Find culinary canvases in the form of plates and platters. Starters are stunning on heirloom handpainted trays or elevate a salad in an upgraded bowl\, bringing epicurean dreams to life. \nTake time to trade multimedia for mixed media\, you’ll love the reviews\, virtual or not. \nFrosted verdigris crossdipped stoneware drinkware collection with embellished handles by Scott Kaye of Arlington\, Va. \nHand-carved forest relief brown stoneware hanging tile by Elke Seefeldt of Arlington\, Va. \nDistressed contrast celestial orb vase by Elke Seefeldt of Arlington\, Va. \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 September 11  for the Torpedo Factory Art Center’s Late Night; “Physicality: Tapping into Tactile” show runs September 1 through 30\, 2026. \nFollow @studio.fireon for gallery updates and artist features.
