In the Main Gallery, The work that results from Sarah Knight’s experimental ceramic processes in RADIANT ABBERANCE allows them to build a queer reality that uses artifice and deception as a defense mechanism and reflective safe space. The dialogue their work has with the history of craft and tradition questions the role of clay as a material deconstruction of identity and value.
In the Snap Space Gallery, Jonathan Virginia Green presents HEAVEN IS HELL, an exhibition that functions as a biographical survey of the artist’s relationship to erotic intimacy and grief. Combining leather, rubber, and chrome surfaces (both real and simulated) with hardware such as zippers, chains, and bondage gear, these materials allude to apparel and by extension, the body.
