Exhibitions & Programming

Artworks displayed across several white walls in a gallery. On the left wall are three framed photographs hung in a horizontal line; above the framed works is a long, unframed photograph that stretches across the entire left wall and extends onto the rear wall. A sculpture of a rectangular piece cut out of a car rests on a pedestal in the corner. To the right on the rear wall are three framed black and white photographs hung in a vertical line. Further to the right is a freestanding wall covered entirely in a vinyl photo mural of a man cutting into a graffiti-covered van with a blowtorch. A vitrine containing ephemera is positioned against this wall.

A painting of three naked people leaning back on their arms on grass looking out across the water at several mountains. The painting is done in thick, heavy brushstrokes so that the people’s shapes can barely be made out. The colors are muted, dark indigo and green.
