summer show!
Thrilled to announce a show opening TOMORROW and up for three months (!!), co-starring with Esthea Kim’s delightful paintings of clouds and atmosphere. We had a blast hanging it last week, exploring the resonances between my spare photos and Esthea’s voluptuous yet prankster rain clouds. Many thanks go to curator Barbara Hawes for finding and pairing the two of us together—only her imagination, perseverance and infectious joy and advocacy could whip up a show so quickly. Hulls Art Supply framed my pieces in record time and I’m thrilled with how they came out—gorgeous. If you’re in the vicinity, please come by for a merry mixer with no shortage of libation and sustenance.
Pieces are from series of photographs called HOMING—exploring where I live when I first moved into my apartment in New Haven. A lot of the furnishings were from the previous tenant who had wonderful taste, but I felt strange, almost like I was visiting, laying my things with hers, now mine, and figuring out my place in this place. These photos are visual notes of this and there, looking out, looking in, sheltering, claiming and loosening—those moments before one fully inhabits and forgets the darling details, or becomes so accustomed to the new geometry and choreography of living that one slips across its surface like the interior of a shell.
If you’re in the vicinity, please come by tomorrow for a merry mixer with no shortage of libation and sustenance.
