Zoe Hawk, Lost Girls explores the complex experience of
girlhood, examining feminine identity, adolescent
anxiety, and the search for belonging. Upon first
glance, the paintings appear sweet and familiar:
candy-colored, nostalgic vignettes of girls camping,
playing, and dancing. Yet closer inspection reveals
narratives that take a mysterious or unsettling turn.
Sometimes embodying innocence and curiosity, other times
confronting uncertainty and fear, the works delve into
both the wonder and heartbreak of coming of age.

Opening reception, 6-8pm
Two solo exhibitions: The Book of Parentheses, new
paintings by Ron Hicks, and Unbridled, new works by Jill
Soukup. Both artists will be in attendance. Ron
approaches these paintings without a predetermined
story. He thinks of each work as a chapter in a book
with no fixed beginning, middle, or end, leaving its
meaning open to you.

Where Things Wander: New Works by Jill Soukup "Release
the reins and let the horse choose." Jill Soukup's new
body of work follows that advice: different subjects,
different mediums, all sharing the same willingness to
trust curiosity and let things. unfold.

The Poetics of Light, new paintings by Jon Doran
The full collection is now online for you to view and
reserve ahead of the October 16 opening. Rocky Cornish
coves, swimmers in clear water, the cliffs of the north
coast, alongside white roses, a bowl of lemons, and a
portrait. Up close, Jon Doran's paint is scrapes,
dashes, and swipes. From a distance, the whole works
together to explore the nature of daylight. "I
ultimately hope to share a sense of the consolation and
coherence I personally experience before beauty, whether
it's in front of a view of mist on the water or amidst
the impending rocks of the north coast of Cornwall

Linda Nguyen Lopez, Low Tide and Mathew
McConnell: Farmer, Not a Gardener. In Low Tide,
Lopez explores the question of intergenerational
transference, holding space to ruminate on what one
retains from their lineage and the role of
intentionality in cultural inheritance. Mirrored
throughout the exhibition are infusions of the deeply
personal blended with universal languages of color and
design. Pivoting between materials and familial rifts,
Lopez's Low Tide alternates focus between the anecdotal
yet precious nature of the stories we keep.
McConnell exhibits a series of unglazed, raku-fired
eathenware sculptures. For nearly two decades,
McConnell's process has begun by taking cues from other
artists' works, which he 'remaks' under a set of
constraints that shift with each body of work. His
approach is a means of understanding the present moment
in art, focused through the measured, physical act of
object-making. The artist's clutch of abstract
sculptures take visual cues from contemporary art
publications, borrowing lines and compositions from the
work of other artists to create wholly original forms.
