Unravelings
Exhibition dates: February 1 – March 22, 2025
Opening Reception: Saturday, February 1 | 5:00PM – 7:00PM
Unravelings explores six artist’s journeys into the underworld to discover hidden languages that communicate in the multiverse in which we live. Using meditative and energetic processes to weave and untangle their own vocabulary, each of these artists seeks to create interior spaces that reflect our contemporary world in our new political landscape. Unravelings examines these very private languages and makes them public, translating their experiences onto paper or canvas into unique styles that strive to interpret our media-overloaded world into ciphers of meaning. Curated by Aline Mare with Alexandra Wiesenfeld, Annie Reiniger-Holleb, Malado Francine, Nadege Monchera Baer, Raksha Parekh
