Abstract
"Transubstantiation" was created by Dylan Boutwell in 2017 and was selected for the Sally Becker Grinspan award during the Senior Thesis Exhibition in April, 2017. Dylan's artist statement reads "My work seeks to harness what is fleeting and make it permanent. Through contorting, molding, and grappling with material, I encapsulate and document the energy and movement of the body in space and time. To imbue the piece's raw material with a sense of reverence, I elevate it. The base literally carries the burden of my past actions by evidencing weight and density. Honest and confessional, the work's surface reveals process. Through exposing the interior, I manifest the void, seeking to make the intangible tangible."
