This exhibition positions the artists in intimate conversation with one another while examining both the intricacy and vastness of their practices. Using exploratory techniques which stretch and reimagine the use of materials, the artists layer and shape their media to give visibility to nuanced, depth-filled narratives. Through the examination of their distinct processes, the themes in Undercurrents converge around notions of cultural hybridity, transformations of the body, and the many ways in which human longing manifests through works of art.
We look forward to seeing you there!
