DESCRIPTION:Spoke Art is pleased to present Semiprecious, a solo show by Sam Wolfe 
 Connelly. This series of illustrations will be Sam’s first solo show 
 following his recent graduation from the prestigious SCAD and recent 
 relocation to New York City.\n\nSemiprecious is based around the amorphous 
 narrative of being left by someone. This visual chronicle evokes the 
 feeling of being flawed and knowing that there is always going to be 
 something more precious than you. Sam’s drawings are inspired by grave 
 robbing and underground mining; two subjects that darkly probe the depths 
 of both the physical and spiritual worlds. The artist communicates what it 
 is like to try and steal back what you’ve lost, but ultimately being 
 stuck in a black mineshaft with nothing but soot and diamonds around you. 
 \n\nLighting is addressed with steadfast urgency in this collection of 
 works. Connelly lets light guide the viewer to places previously shrouded 
 in darkness: only exposed by careful introspection. This diverse set of 
 pieces varies from the wholly subterranean, to the light and effervescent. 
 Through the lens of precious stones themselves, the artist explores the way 
 light is captured, reflected and transformed by natures most sought after 
 and rare treasures. He produces intricate relationships between subject, 
 stone, artist and viewer. \n\n\nAbout the artist:\nSam Wolfe Connelly was 
 born in 1988 and has recently graduated from the Savannah College of Art 
 and Design. His work has been featured in the Society of Illustrators 
 (NYC), and New York Times.com, Creative Quarterly. Some of his clients 
 include Playboy Magazine, Hasbro, Colors Magazine, SCAD, and Coheed & 
 Cambria.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2011/10/06/18692434.php
