Opening Reception – “SAMPLER” – Souterrain Gallery
The Souterrain Gallery will host its first of the Season Opening Reception on Saturday, May 28 from 3-6 pm for a group of young artists.
S A M P L E R
Bound by an interest in craft and materiality, seven artists explore drawing with alternative techniques. The ceramic sculptures of Sam Berenfield harken a nostalgia for childhood that is challenged by the expressive quilts and drawings of Noah Pica, whose work evokes an unflinching humor and sensuality that confront the viewer with color and form. Beautifully sensitive drawings by Krista Young respond to the frenetic and ornate patchwork quilt of Emma Redmond. Elizabeth Schweizer and Stefan Sehringer converse through weaving: material dances in the works of Sehringer, while Schweizer’s surreal images develop through the shifting of color and pattern. Cassie Sheedy intertwines two and three dimensions with multimedia wall reliefs in wood and on paper. Together the artists grapple with the anxiety of being young during uncertain times, of finding and forging a place to call their own.
