A Solo Show featuring
Patrick Sargent
May 1 - June 30, 2024
Reception June 28, 3 - 6 p.m.
Printmakers Inc is proud to present Patrick Sargent’s solo exhibition titled "Doleful Whimsy.”
In his printmaking exhibition, Patrick explores 'doleful whimsy'—where sadness meets playfulness on paper. Through relief prints, cyanotypes, and silkscreens, he captures the delicate balance between melancholy and light-heartedness. Each print invites viewers into a world where tears and laughter coexist, celebrating the beauty found within the complexity of human emotion.
Originally from Detroit, MI, Patrick attended George Mason University, receiving a BFA in printmaking and an MFA in Critical Arts Practice (socially engaged art). He and fellow GMU alum Erwin Thamm, formed Sargent-Thamm in 2012 as collaboration to explore artistic engagement through local and national community outreach and veteran support programs.
