Last night was the artist reception for the show "Where to From There?". It was a very rainy and cold evening but the turnout was incredible. I simply adore standing near my piece and watching people walk up and admire it. Some of my favorite silhouettes of people taking in my work can be seen above.
Kemp says of the work in the show, "The works in this exhibition have social relevance in that they suggest new readings or mis-readings of received ideas and function as signposts of emancipatory thought. As I looked for visual pleasure I also was aware of ethical and social concerns in the works that connect them to contemporary dialogues that are simultaneously aesthetic and political. This is the type of work that can set an agenda for building, through visual conversations, a foundation of examples that could be used by future practitioners of art that calls for non-normative examples of beauty and happiness.”
Featured Artists: Ted Andersen, Tamera Avery, Jamie Banes, Randy Beckelheimer, Timothy Bluitt, Dustin Campbell, Lizzy Cross, Harris David Harris, Ira J. Hawkins, Angela Hennessy, Carol Ladewig, Todd Lavine, Mat O'Hara, Tressa Pack, Anne Pinkowski, Johanna Poethig, Clare Rickman, Rtystk, Laurie Shapiro, Chris Thorson, Pep Ventosa
