| Mass ProductionApril 20, 2006- May 23, 2006Reception: April 20, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm Join us as we celebrate Wright's continuing exploration into the utilization of easily available and
deliberately inexpensive materials. In Mass Production Wright uses over 2800 one inch buttons as
pixels to construct each image. In an age of immediate digital media, Wright has intentionally created
a time-consuming, alternative form of pixilation assembled entirely by hand. In this reinterpretation of
the portrait the merging of old and new technologies with sensory responses presents the material
and the subject in a totally new context. The secret soul of the common object materializes and gives
expression to the personality of the subject, beginning the metamorphosis of the ordinary into something
extraordinary.
