Of
his work in this exhibition, Petrillo says:
The
landscapes are from my property in Massachusetts. The
figurative drawings are developed from a grant provided
by the Research Foundation of the City University of
New York. The still-life is an ongoing interest for
me. Observing light as it illuminates a particular place,
while creating a moment expressing a frame of mind,
has been the inspiration for these works. |
