Art@Work
The Durham Art Guild in partnership with the Research Triangle Foundation presents “The Color of Then” featuring work by Pete Sack and “The Artist is having a good day, Again” by King Nobuyoshi Godwin.
King Nobuyoshi Godwin
King was born in Raleigh NC, with Autism. He chose his painting as his job when he was 22 years old. Since then, he has shown and sold his collections to various audiences. King’s art is a vibrant expression of his neurodiversity, shaped by the unique gifts of autism and synesthesia. His combined sensory experiences manifest in the scattered numbers that fill his paintings, intricately woven into the imagery, allowing him to convey emotions and ideas beyond verbal expression. For King, art is a space of renewal, where creation transcends language, offering a glimpse into his world beyond words.
Pete Sack
Pete’s current work comprises both abstract and figurative pieces. Each allows for a different expression of himself. His abstracts are about flow, both mechanically and emotionally. He uses masonry tools to drag paint in methodical ways that create visually appealing palettes and patterns. His figurative and portrait work still rely on the fine detailing skills he developed in his youth but also contain new depth as they combine multiple faces and abstraction, giving the work a richer, more complex feel. Pete works from a studio in downtown Raleigh, where visitors are always welcome. He is represented by Artsuite and regularly shows his work in the Triangle area.
