Curator’s Statement by Jeanne Ciravolo & Valerie Garlick

With artists culled from our 2020 Open Call, Lines of Site coheres around individual experiences of perception grounded in the everyday. The selected artists offer a whimsical vision that speaks of domestic life through abstraction and representation. In these works questions are posed regarding scale, solidity, flatness and the central role of color in expressing visibility. The answers are delightful in their inventiveness and charm.
