Pace has sought to activate the physical voids of his surroundings using colored clouds of smoke. Shooting on location, Pace’s process is highly susceptible to the elements; natural light and wind play a pivotal role in capturing these decisive moments in real time. The gallery has exhibited the series since 2013, including the artist’s first collection of images produced on a road trip from Texas to New York. Since then, Pace has produced numerous bodies of works in a variety of environments. He has captured his surreal scenes in the open landscapes of Marfa, Texas, the abandoned warehouses of derelict industrial complexes, and on the grounds of the Dallas Arboretum as an invited artist-in-residence, to name just a few. Within each, Pace invites viewers to hold on to fleeting, ephemeral moments.
