On 3^rd Friday in October, Kiosk Gallery presents Who Needs Donuts? – a solo exhibition of embroidered work by Jennifer Boe. Boe’s detailed embroidery draws upon emotional and memorial connection with food, through a meditative practice which explores a paradoxical interplay of spontaneity and slow, deliberate attention to detail.
