Brock DeBoer

The Gossamer Series

On Thursday, October 28th 2021, Guy Hepner Editions is excited to present Brock DeBoer’s Gossamer Series. The exclusive series features 20 unique porcelain sculptures that will drop online on Thursday from 2pm EST. DeBoer sees this collection of still lifes as self portraits and tangible memories of another time and place. DeBoer draws influence from his midwestern upbringing combined with the ever- changing and vastly diverse landscape of Los Angeles.

Brock DeBoer’s artistic process as a ceramic sculptor utilizes porcelain, historical motifs and surface treatments to recontextualize detritus, outdated objects. For DeBoer the source of the objects he recreates come from childhood and popular culture such as sneakers and Nintendo. Many are highly nostalgic to his generation and beyond as there are also historical references such as a bust of Michelangelo’s David found in past and current works.

Using his extensive knowledge of ceramic materials and processes DeBoer brings his sculptures a new life becoming heirlooms of the 21st century. By using classical blue and white motifs of cobalt patterns and luscious gold accents DeBoer’s casts become suspended somewhere in the past and present. He allows the viewer to become lost in memory as well as at the same time the extreme craft and finishes of his precise reproductions.
