LINDSEY DUNNAGAN, NY WETMORE, RICK WRIGHT

DECEMBER 7, 2018 - JANUARY 18, 2019

MALLIN GALLERY – LINDSEY DUNNAGAN uses diverse techniques to explore human interaction with the natural environment in her exhibition Natural Liquidation. As the sea level rises, the land contracts and the earth enters a new climate norm. These works investigate the landscape as it bends to the destruction we’ve set in motion.

CHARNO GALLERY – NY WETMORE finds that each of us is the sum of our parts, no one piece should be taken individually. We are a mosaic of our past, our present and our future. Fiber processes lend themselves to the consideration of each tiny piece, each tiny stitch, each tiny stroke, each button and what they can mean to the whole. Aristotle described so passionately that the whole of our parts is much greater than the individual sum. Together we are more. Wetmore’s pieces are meant to inspire one to think of this idea and to encourage joy in remembering those pieces of ourselves whether success or failure that brings us to where we are today.

UNDERGROUND GALLERY – RICK WRIGHT challenges himself with color relationships, and mark-making to build, define, redefine, and refine each painting without losing a sense of liveliness and energy. Wright seeks a balance between the raw nature of a gestural five minute sketch and the sophistication one expects of a resolved painting. The strength and grace of these feminine forms in motion both challenge and compliment the direction of his work.
