Mark those calendars for our last opening reception of the 2025 season! Our next art party won't be happening until March of 2026, so you DEFINITELY don't want to miss this one!
Join us FRIDAY (I know we usually hold events on Thursdays, so please take note!), October 24th from 5:30 - 8pm to celebrate our first solo exhibition of original sculptures by Kentucky-based artist, Crystal Gregory!
"In recent works woven textiles and architecture are explored as they pertain to movement—movement described by and remembered through the outlining material landscape. The movement through a landscape, the pliability of a textile, as well as their gridded systems, are described and explored in relation to social structures of citizenship and intersecting parts of a whole. Leading to recognition of these systems as boundaries and edges
framing the life and movement within.
My current exhibition The Ocean Never Gives Up, is made up of a series of natural dyed silk wall works. Some are cast in concrete stilling the free movement of a fabric. While other pieces are dimensional structures, being held open by a metal frame and allowing the space to drape and holding space for softness. These works of strips and subtle grids allow for a shift and release of lines using moiré effect as the viewer moves around them."
