May Exhibition Series

MALLIN GALLERY – PAUL SANTOLERI’S drawings respond to surface and surroundings, borrowing lines and images from his environment in an effort to enable the work to create itself. Using rhythms and repetitions that build narrative, the forms spin into abstractions based on emotions, pattern, movement, and direct response to instinct. These drawings become room drawings, where the viewer experiences the work by walking through it.

CHARNO GALLERY – KAREN KUNC addresses issues of the landscape and our natural surroundings as direct influences of her Nebraska heritage. A sense of the micro/macrocosm is set against landscape or space and illustrates the span of time it takes to wear away a canyon or build a mountain. Symbolic images are derived from a rich mix of instilled influences born at home and greatly expanded from travel.

UNDERGROUND GALLERY – JOHN LAMBERTON is fascinated by Quantum Physics. This interest inspires his photographic exploration of wavefronts. Lamberton creates a unique visual interplay of particles and waves by recording over space and time. In this body of work he employs single, double and triple exposures to record luminous light sources in a painterly manor. His use of a negative capture and a positive display beautifully describes the duality of how we choose to observe the world.
