Holding Space

Curated by Debbie Hesse

Reception scheduled for Jan 13 has been postponed.  Check back for the rescheduled date.

The seven artists in Holding Space explore physical, social, and spiritual connections to a world in flux.  Innovative poetic and sensory works consider how we humans coexist with nature, while bringing into focus a sense of awe, and reverence tinged with angst, fear, and hope; these artists construct compelling statements regarding where we find ourselves at this moment.

Artworks ranging from meticulous Burmese beadwork tapestries to high-tech3-D printed sculpture, grapple with ideas about stewardship, conservation, history, and identity, and the future of the world as we know it.
