We've loved
John Fraser's work since we became aware of it in Chicago a few years back. Fraser is able to articulate the value of age and wear in a modern, relevant way. His work allows us to hone in on the subtle toning and elegant materiality of books, industrial fragments and textiles. If you have the opportunity, see his work at
Roy Boyd Gallery in Chicago--it has helped us understand the importance of wear and history in everyday objects.
