Wade Kramm

Wade Kramm’s recent works explore Minimalism, architecture, and perception to reshape the viewer's engagement with the gallery space. Using construction materials such as drywall, floorboards, molding, light switches, and doors, he fabricates alternative spaces, called Fragments, within the gallery. Standing in front of each piece, the phenomenological experience fluctuates between seeing the materials simply as materials and a perceptual/physical engagement with the new spaces made within the surrounding architecture.

Wade Kramm received his M.F.A. in sculpture at the Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, RI. He has received multiple prestigious grants, including the Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant, the Rhode Island State Council for the Arts Grant, and an Artist Resource Trust Grant.
