KRISTIN MARIE BACHMANN | At the Still Point [Part 3]
November 21, 2024 – January 31, 2025
Ion District Garage
4111 Fannin Street
Houston, TX 77004
Opening reception Thursday, November 21, 4 – 7PM
Kristin Marie Bachmann and Piper Faust Public Art are pleased to announce KRISTIN MARIE BACHMANN | At the Still Point [Part 3] in the garage at Ion District located at 4111 Fannin Street in Houston’s Midtown. On view through January 31, 2025, the exhibition will open with a complimentary reception on Thursday, November 21 from 4 – 7PM. It will be open by appointment and to the public on Thursdays from 12 – 6PM.
This show will be the third in a series of solo exhibitions running concurrently in Houston and featuring Bachmann’s inaugural body of work, At the Still Point. Developed over four years and across multiple locations in Texas and New York, this body comprises over 70 sculptural works employing various weave structures. Evolving from an exploration of the canvas – a woven textile – into a study of composition with space, the work contemplates what exists between.
Part 3 at Ion District will feature 40, a large series of woven sculptural works exploring the boundaries between drawing, painting, sculpture, and installation, and Five Basic Positions, a series of weavings reflecting on holes and the body’s experience with space.
When thinking about the exhibitions, Bachmann said:
“My work is all about process. So for me, exhibitions aren’t just presentations. They’re opportunities to explore and expand upon the work that’s been created – a dance between the work, me, a space, and the viewers. I was drawn to the garage because of its materiality, proportions, and the large windows facing Fannin Street. The space offered the chance to further explore the relationships between the works and the opportunity for them to be experienced in a different way, with natural lighting that’s constantly changing and a different approach for viewers as they walk or drive by. I wanted to investigate that.”
Part 2, featuring Patriarchs, Autobiography, Sign, At the Still Point, and Grace, will continue to be exhibited at The Techne Gallery at TXRX Labs in Houston’s East End through December 13, 2024.
Kristin Marie Bachmann (b. 1979) is an artist from West Texas, currently living and working in Houston, focused on exploring what art is and how to make it. Working at the intersection of art, design, and craft, she develops artwork through the physical act of making. Her current process uses weaving and woodworking to explore space. Drawing on broader traditions of artmaking, her work makes an argument for elegant form.
Bachmann is an alumna of Parsons School of Design. She earned her JD from Stanford Law School in 2013 and her BA from Rice University in 2003. Prior to becoming an artist, Kristin was a private equity lawyer in the oil & gas industry and an economic consultant with Deloitte and Ernst & Young. She started her career as a research analyst at the Jones Graduate School of Business at Rice University.

Kristin Marie Bachmann (b. 1979) is an artist from West Texas, currently living and working in Houston, focused on exploring what art is and how to make it.

Drawing on broader traditions of artmaking, her work makes an argument for elegant form.
