"Recollections & Ruminations"

Pancho Jiménez exhibited his art work in a solo show at Sierra College.  The show titled, "Recollections & Ruminations" features Pancho's ceramic sculpture.  The work in this exhibit draws on the densely carved textures of the organic and geometric designs and hieroglyphs found in ancient works of art.  Utilizing contemporary imagery mined from commercial ceramic molds, Pancho recontextualizes this imagery to suggest a vocabulary that is both familiar and mysterious.  Melting into one another these images suggest a dreamlike state where in images, like ideas, experiences and emotions come in and out of focus.
