When Brian Rochefort<\/a> travels, he’s inclined to visit remote parts of the planet. The depths of the Amazon, the volcanic island cluster of the Gal\u00e1pagos, and the immensely diverse ecosystem of Tanzania’s Ngorongoro Crater have all drawn him in and once back in his Los Angeles studio, inspired the artist’s lushly textured sculptures. <\/p>\n Rochefort (previously<\/a>) is known for his gloopy, chunky vessels that appear to ooze and gurgle with vivid color. A new body of work debuting at Sean Kelly, Los Angeles<\/a> this month continues the artist’s interest in how abstract forms can translate the myriad textures and compositions of the natural world.<\/p>\n
