Looking forward to showing with a great roster of artists. We were invited to use Eileen Fisher clothing, chop it up, and make a piece of art work from the fabric. This is a new piece called ORIFICE.

Presence / Absence
Artworks by Andrea Benson, Jef Gunn, Deborah Kapoor, Brenda Mallory, Martha Pfanschmidt, Joan Stuart Ross, Andrea Schwartz-Feit, and Kirk Weller
Eight artists working in a diverse manner but with encaustic as a unifying material explore the idea of what is and what is not, what remains and what is lost. For some of them this is a metaphor, and for others it is the basis of their practice. This show will be curated by Martha Pfanschmidt.
