Description

By David Moreno, Fort Worth Report June 3, 2022 Robert McAn remembers spending hours on his couch watching tv during the early months of the pandemic. Right above his TV, a family quilt hung on the wall. The quilt featured an abstract, geometric design made up of light blue, dark purple, beige, gray and black colors. Looking at the quilt, McAn was inspired. He looked for other items around his home that held importance to him. He found a print he made in high school in 1976 with a similar abstract design. With the quilt and print in mind, McAn had the building blocks for his latest exhibition, Marking Time, on display at Artspace111 on 111 Hampton St. The exhibition will be on display until June 25.
