To The Edge by Alex Copeland, Dallas Observer







There is a hazy, oppressive boundary between awake and asleep that many of us struggle through each morning, whether it's the groggy, pre-coffee sleepwalk or the stubborn fight between a person's obligations and his under-rested body. This half-awake state is the subject of Houston-based Italian artist Nicola Parente’s  series of paintings in Edge of Awakening, a new exhibit at the Gremillion &Co. Fine Art gallery. The exhibit showcases Parente's expressive abstract paintings that transition between darkness and light, interrupted only by the boundaries of the canvas itself.
