INTERSECTION | MATT EATON + JEF BOURGEAU
INTERSECTION | Matt Eaton + Jef Bourgeau
"Each of these painters is a deliberate individualist. Bourgeau's work is round and soft while Eaton's is sharp and dynamic. Together this shared visual contradiction not only heightens their separateness but also provides the strongest link between them - an intersection."
