Exhibition Statement
Threadings is an exploration of modern storytelling in visual media. What are the subtler narratives of our lives? What intimate details of our collective and individual histories, cultures, and identities can be found in the texture of a painting or the shape of a line?
Titled after and inspired by the storytelling of culture worker and essayist, Ismatu Gwendolyn, this exhibition is an invitation to reflect on where we find ourselves situated in the dialogue between humanity’s capacity for self-expression and the limits of our physical forms featuring works with an emphasis on personal narratives, fiction/folklore, and the abstraction of memory.
May you leave with a word, image, or feeling in mind that shapes what becomes of your story.
THE LATEST

A group show of work honoring Asian American And Pacific Islander Heritage Month:

OPENING: Friday | May 2, 2025 | 6-9 pm
Exhibition Statement
In respect to the month of May, this show serves as a reflection of the values and
ambitions shared by people identifying with Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander heritage. We are within a period of time that has grown increasingly hostile to artists, their work, and identity across the board. In order to identify what exactly it is we hold on to and what we reach for, we must look. This show is a survey of our lives, on the ground, in the field, on our own two feet.
PAST EXHIBITION(S)
sin título
A duo show of work by Chicago-based artists Jassiel Serna and Araceli Zuniga
OPENING: April 26, 2025 | 6-10 pm
Exhibition Statement
sin título showcases the work of Mexican-American artists Jassiel Serna and Araceli Zuniga as they explore the boundaries of their culture and the self. Acts of transgression inform their practice; together they challenge the consumption of culture by using iconography as an entrance to redefine expectations of Latinidad.
Through traditional methods of sculpture and painting, sin título illuminates both a pride and pain inherent in belonging.
