Terry Haggerty's Sculptural Illusions at Florence Show
Terry Haggerty (London, 1970) presents Symmetric Difference, an exhibition in Florence that explores the boundary between painting and sculpture through geometric abstraction. The title, an oxymoron suggesting order within discontinuity, reflects Haggerty's manipulation of line, material, and perspective to expand formal expression. His works, crafted in wood or aluminum, create an illusory physicality inspired by 1960s abstract art and Op Art, referencing Bridget Riley and contemporary architectural twists by Bjarke Ingels. The large wall painting appears to advance toward the viewer, while sculptural pieces play with interlocking geometries. The exhibition runs in Florence, Italy.
