The paintings of Houston artist Thomas Walsh are an exploration
of frozen moments in time. Using shapes abstracted entirely from
images of subjects in motion, Walsh creates the illusion of forms in
a void, while maintaining an undeniably flat painted surface.
Although the source of the imagery is utterly lost in the process of
abstraction, the images contain a tension, like energy in flux
between the potential and the kinetic.
Thomas
Walsh received his MFA from the University of Texas, San Antonio in
2000, and his BFA from the University of Houston in 1997. Slice
of Life is Walsh’s first solo exhibition in San Antonio since
his three-year hermitage in his studio in Houston.
