\'more is more\' is a little too much

An anecdote in a written statement accompanying Eddie Dominguez\'s current show, \"more\" at the Art Foundation, suggests the beauty and weakness of the artist\'s \"excessive aesthetic.
\"It tells the story of Dominguez\'s graduation thesis exhibition, for which he designed and built a complete restaurant, from tables and cutlery to chairs and carpets.
Dominguez\'s mother helps the artist by hand making
Embroider the tablecloth.
When she finished, she sent the tablecloth back to her son with a note saying, \"Maybe next time, don\'t be more, how about enough?
\"The current exhibition includes a restaurant ensemble, as well as bedrooms, bathroom fixtures, lamps, vanity tables and sculpture desktops, mainly made of ceramic and embossed metal.
Dominguez, a native of New Mexico and current resident, answered his mother\'s message on a ceramic base on a restaurant stool.
\"Thank you for your mother\'s help,\" he wrote in the color and pattern of the decorative stool.
This piece of domestic dialogue adds a flavor to Dominguez\'s work, which directly attracts nostalgic nerves.
Like comfortable food, these household items and accessories affirm the special connection between the heart and the fireplace.
Enhancing the physical environment of the family also enhances the social, emotional and even moral environment of this place, the rational followers of this transformationof-the-
The century Arts and Crafts movement in the United States and Britain and Dominguez\'s works also reflect the same optimism.
But it is far from quaint or moral.
Dominguez is an imaginative artist whose work adds valuable evidence to the legitimacy of ceramic sculpture.
His plate, tray, CUP, lamp and dresser are fully functional ---
So easy to approach-
But they themselves are objects of sculpture.
For example, in the \"Black Velvet Fish dinner\", dominguos hangs bright glazed ceramic fish on the same vibrant ceramic leaves grown on black stone beds, allfaced cabinet.
The scene can be deconstructed to serve the fish it refers.
All decorative elements can also be used as trays, plates or cups.
For the restaurant ensemble, Dominguez folded the tableware of each nanny together like a blooming flower.
These pieces are available, although a bit clumsy and excessive.
Dominguos, by personalizing secular and rendering functional sculptures, planted his work firmly on both sides of the fence, which separated the form from the functional area, and this duality was the reason for some conspiracy
But it is sometimes enough to quote the artist\'s own mother.
Dominguez is not just borrowing the dual identity of each of his works, he also saturates their surfaces with colors, patterns and images that come in the eyes
This enthusiasm, energy and contempt for restraint can be refreshing, just like Dominguez\'s luxurious bathroom sink and toilet.
But they can also be immersed in tacky decor-
Like the headboard of the deer and Rose he painted. -
And superficial criticism, like a vanity full of cutting \"multi-faceted fantasies\"
Magazine photos of fashion models.
Dominguos\'s works are the most influential and personal and autobiography. A glass-
Top bedside table with small personal items and a door facing quilt
Like collages of hammer metal and postcards sent to artists, it has the warmth and depth that can\'t be reached by busy, more decorative works.
In a more personal work, Dominguez establishes another productive duality that goes beyond the form and function of fusion.
Here, he adds practical significance to the obvious fun of the work\'s construction.
