Conversations with the Artists

Gallery Artist Talks | Cynthia Atwood: 2 pm; Mark Lorah: 3 pm Cynthia Atwood and Mark Lorah Cynthia Atwood, working primarily in fiber and textiles, presents a collection of fiber sculptures that integrate humor and corporeal threads. Central to her work is the physical responsiveness and the engineering challenges encountered during the creation process. Mark Lorah showcases his latest series of paintings that examine the balance between order and chaos. As both a sculptor and painter, his large-scale works invite a physical experience, to be approached with our bodies. Visceral Resonance | Exhibition Summary: The process of converting our perceptions into mental constructs can often lead us away from a true understanding of our existence. When we focus solely on individual details— like the trees in a forest—we may miss the broader context and the interconnectedness of the whole. This exhibition seeks to delve into the transient nature of ideas that arise from processes, encouraging contemplation of how everything is linked.
