Aftermath

Kay Henning: Resurrection: My Beating Heart

Shock, denial, rage and grief. Transient stages in process to healing. Time, awakening and acceptance transform these states into a new reality, a form of resurrection and possibility.

•••••

Ruth Ross: Lolita.

Memory and shame dwell side by side in the decoratively papered walls of a comfortable, sheltering house. Over time, these two states of being fuse into each other and cannot be separated.

A Soft Place To Land

New Work by Gallery artists: Nancy Helmsworth, Kimber Shiroma, Elena Thomas, Dawn-Starr Crowther, Angela Riggs

Curated by Angela Riggs

In a world that often feels like it’s fraying at the edges, A Soft Place to Land creates exactly that—a hand-built refuge that offers moments of calm and quiet.

Nothing here is single-purpose; everything holds more than one function, the way resilience itself is built from interdependent supports rather than a single strong thread. The effort behind each piece is visible rather than hidden away - layer upon layer of repair, adaptation, and care.

Visitors are invited to sit within the work, becoming another layer in a space built collaboratively by hand, hinting that resilience is never a solitary act but something woven together, thread by thread, chair by chair, person by person.

Opening Reception
First Thursday, October 1st, 5 – 8PM

Resilience meditation led by Dawn-Starr Crowther
Thursday, October 15th, 6 – 7:30PM
