In music, syncopation involves a variety of rhythms, which are often unexpected, making the music ‘off-beat’ – a disturbance or interruption of the regular flow of rhythm. The works featured in this exhibition represent the evolution of Lederman’s work but also identify a type of syncopated change in style and mood.
Although differing slightly in medium and style, all stem from the same foundation – the circle. The circle shape continues to anchor all of the artist’s work, as each forms representations of our unpredictable and random, yet seemingly ordered world.
The artist uses bold, geometric lines against negative space, mirroring the strong and weak accents that occur in music.
Syncopation will allow you to experience and interpret the work without forced direction.
