First Friday - 2 terrific group shows at KCAC in May through July

First Friday exhibition opening

Main Gallery: (un) Focused, curated by Madeline Marak

Curator and artist Madeline Marak curates a show of women artists who create images within lived experiences, which explore the relationship between urban and suburban, personal spaces, belonging, and a collective uncertain future. Marak brings together artists whose work intends to prompt the viewer to re-consider, re-connect, and re-examine ordinary spaces and familiar, yet uncharted spaces.

Snap Space: The Unearthing of Cavities Through Meditative Rituals of Intimate and Quiet Practice, a two person exhibition by Eve Krahn and Moe Leady

In the Snap Space, Painter Moe Leady and Ceramicist Eve Krahn investigate relationships between individuals and vessels. The proximity of forms and bodies in their works prompt us to reflect on relationships and stories that emerge from these interactions. The media of each artist are quite different, yet both create work that directs the viewer towards both contemplating and feeling larger ideas about identity, memory, and connection.

Moe Leady is an artist who works and resides in Kansas City. Her work has been recently exhibited at Zhou B Art Center in Kansas City, Visionary Projects in Manhattan, and Awita Studio in Brooklyn.

Eve Krahn is a practicing pediatrician and Fine Artist in Kansas City, focusing on a abstract, hand-built sculptures that feature organic forms. She Shows regularly around Kansas CIty, on both sides of State Line.
