Material Handling – John Criscitello, Anne Garvey, Esther Marie Hall, Laura Sanford, and Josh Short. Curated by Tavarus Blackmon

Work in this exhibit is comprised of rich painting and textile-based work, sound
sculptures and installations, drawing and three-dimensional installations. The artists in this exhibit all carry a material handling into the studio and this surmises the strength and power of their creations: that they be made of the hand.

Alternative Greetings reflects on the ways in which we have become connected and disconnected during the past two years. This show presents the collaborative projects “Alternative Greetings/Alternative Meetings” and “Heavier than Air” alongside new printed works. How can we successfully connect during and after the pandemic? How can we share the weight of our collective grief?
