︎Painted Hooves 1. 
Many horse owners paint their equine hooves before a big show. There is some debate about what shows require this amount of care (regionals or just nationals) and which polishes are best (clear Ultra Hoof Polish or Twinkle Toes). Still, this act of preparation resonates with the absurdity and anticipation involved in a large group exhibition.

Austin Swearengin
Understanding design and how it is implemented- peeking through the cracks to see a relationship between materiality and linguistics, sculpture is a process and form for me that is as much about play as it is research. Familiar objects are positioned in a space between utilitarian purpose and poetic intention, often employing bright colors, material & word investigations, and an abundance of visual information tucked into systems of found and fabricated objects.



Austin Swearengin received his BFA from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (2013). He was the recipient of a Minnesota Artists Exhibition Program Award and a Minnesota State Arts Board Gran and was a resident artist at Pioneer Works (Brooklyn, NY) in 2016. He has participated in shows at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Bus Projects (Melbourne AUS), Sleep Center (New York, NY), among many others.
