Amber Hart “Ground Level”

It moves faster than it did a month ago, last year, and the year before that. The ‘it’ that we all recall to one another when speaking of the past and how it has moved us– time. We often measure time day by day from the light and shadows in our surroundings. Light plays a role of anticipation of what’s to come and holds weight in the way it stretches and builds upon the landscapes and what occupies them. Metaphorical figures narrate acts of fleeting memories, driven by the fear of what’s to come and reflect adornment for what is being left behind. Hart’s work is an autobiographical psychological testament that explores the act of ruminating over the relationship between time and the persistent evolution of self. 

This exhibition will be on view April 26–May 3 with a closing reception on Saturday, May 3 from 6–8 p.m. Amber Hart will give a gallery talk about her work Thursday, May 1 at 6 p.m.
