Steve Lapin is exhibiting two bodies of work using sculpted canvas and ceramic sculptures, to further his interest in the use of patterns and rhythms as the underlying influence of his recent work. As evidenced in this newest body of work, his ceramics, sculpture and painting have become a continual expression of this basic insight, expressed probably most fully in early Islamic art. Repeated patterns are used as an artistic device that acts on an allegorical level and mimics the repeating patterns evident in the psychological and physical reality of life. His art is moving towards the concept that at the most basic level, everything is composed of repeating patterns and the movement of energy.
