Look In look Out at Manifest Gallery

My photo Look In Look Out is in the exhibition Private Space, at Manifest Gallery Cincinnati, OH, through Sept. 15, 2023.

We are encouraged to share so much of ourselves now, beyond the normal work of cultivating levels of intimacy through communion with friends, family, workmates, and neighbors. Artists are used to this, to a point. We make a work of art, which acts not only as a piece of self-expression, but necessarily as a meeting place for viewers to experience and be affected by what we made, by who they saw it with. The act of making art is highly personal, highly intimate, but its second life requires that it be shared, made public. That it be shown.

Ten works by 8 artists in Private Space at Manifest Gallery August 18 - September 15, 2023.
