ERIC OGLANDER’s practice is formally, structurally, and materially informed by his multifarious interests. A collector and dealer in folk art, he is attracted to and even romanticizes objects crafted without the explicit intention of viewership; objects that weren’t made to be consumed as artworks. His sculptural practice, often material experiments made within imagined parameters, alludes to these moments forged of necessity and happenstance. His work explores the intersection of the freedom of play and the intentionality of function.
