CENTER GALLERY
Hotter Faster Louder | Sara Tabbert
This body of work is a continuation of mixed media pieces based in the decorative woodworking technique of marquetry. I made use of a summer residency to dive into ways of experimenting with layering, carving, cutting, sandblasting, and printing on cut and pieced wood veneer surfaces. My pieces are a record of seeking out visual contradictions and strange edges in various environments. I am curious about the places where disparate things are forced into dialogue through proximity.
NORTH GALLERY
Resilient: Defining Alaskans through Landscape | Jason Lazarus
Resilient takes landscapes from across Alaska, including the Anchorage, Turnagain & Cook Inlet regions, and encourages a deeper connection with one's surroundings as it redefines these spaces as a reflection of the character traits that we hold dear in the North. While exploring the themes of identity and establishing a sense of home, Resilient was also created as a project to combat the effects of seasonal affective disorder, depression, isolation and anxiety. It encourages the viewer to see the beauty in the mundane, the often sobering and somber landscapes of a long, cold winter.
SOUTH GALLERY
Memory Bank | Katie Ione Craney
Memory Bank is a series of images marking a slow move from Southeast to the Interior. Incorporating words and phrases written in Braille, reflection, and sensory conversation, this body of work considers many ways of knowing and being in relationship with a place or a person.
