Providence artist Joshua Enck, whose sculpture can currently be viewed at the AS220 Project Space, is giving a talk this Thursday at 6 pm on his current exhibition at the AS220 Project Space at 93 Mathewson St. Josh , a trained architect and furniture maker, creates unique sculptural forms in wood and metal that obliquely draw reference from the agricultural and industrial landscape of the midwest. The forms he creates, from a range of materials, are at one familiar an ambiguous, marked by age, weather, and interaction that hint at a narrative the viewer is left to complete. Josh earned an MFA from the Department of Furniture Design at the Rhode Island School of Design in 2003 and was the recipient of the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts 2008 and 2010 Fellowship Merit Award in Crafts.
