CURATORS’ STATEMENT
These sixteen artists display a deep consideration for what presents itself to us within moments of pause and reflection. Utilizing light and shadow across a variety of mediums, their works communicate the lingering feelings, figures, and messages that appear during the passage from one state of being into another, and in doing so, they articulate the loudness of silence.
