This collection of work explores themes of watching yourself being watched, how our behavior changes when we know we are being observed, and how easily our private lives can be recorded and documented. This non-tangible pressure literally changes our physical shapes, choices, lives, and thoughts. This work also explores how our bodies contain our "selves": our emotions, thoughts, dreams, and experiences, and how that containment experience varies.
The Opening Reception is Thursday, July 23rd, from 5-8pm.
Along with the exhibit, Samael Leopold-Sullivan will be offering multiple workshops in flameworking, encaustic, and more:
