Ignition, a solo exhibition of work by Jason Stout will take place from January 19 - February 17, 2021 at the Clara Eagle Gallery at Murray State University.

“These works were selected from Stout’s “Cloud Composition Series” that deal with conflict and turbulence as well as notions of political strife and reflect on instigators, misinformation, vices, struggle, and perceptions of living in the south. Go ahead and sprinkle a lot of amped up, spiced color with a little reconfiguring of cultural icons and play with visual metaphors that analyze the narrative of existence in our modern time in there too.” — T. Michael Martin, Curator and Director of University Galleries, Murray State University, Murray, KY
