How Soon is Now? brings together a selection of Bruce Reynolds’ exquisite cast relief works with two-dimensional collaged linoleum works, to celebrate a physicality that is frequently overlooked in today’s growing digital environment.

The materials and processes used by Bruce Reynolds bridge disciplinary categories and combine the physical with narrative, and image with object. Together these works invite a consideration of the ancient in relation to the present.

“Since how we see the past reflects how we see ourselves, the works are intended to question the tableau of history with consideration of the recent and ancient together,” Reynolds said.
