The resin island, lit from below, is drowned and resuscitated as the…

Amelia Briggs: Meadows
Amelia Briggs is an interdisciplinary artist working in fiber, painting, and installation. Her work investigates themes of interiority, memory, and transformation through plump whimsical forms that switch between the familiar and the uncanny. Through processes of sewing, cutting, stuffing, layering, and assembling, materials become vessels for embodied experience, in which personal history is absorbed and transformed into new forms. Briggs has been an artist-in-residence at Wassaic Project, Monson Arts, and the Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts.

Irit Baniel & Alexis Granwell: PLUMB LINE
Plumb Line holds a tension between the vertical and horizontal, earth and sky, presence and repose. Baniel’s paintings move between the earthly and spiritual, while Granwell’s handmade paper sculptures explore repair and the possibility of transcendence. Their distinct practices come together through the relationship between scroll-like paintings and bodily sculptures, creating a visual axis within the space. This axis becomes a point of connection between the material and the spatial, where balance, gravity, alignment, and intimacy come into focus.
