There is a certain mystery that lurks here...

Just off the center of the gallery lurks a mystery: a house that neither hides, nor quite shelters space. Enclosed in this house is our basic human vulnerability. It stands like a ghost, a chimera, a reminder that our sense of control and safety is a necessary trope that allows us to live in this world. When you look through it, it softens our vision like sweet nostalgia.

ars domestica continues through the end of the month, May 28.

More Mending Circles remain. Bring your mending and your stories. Libbie Soffer will provide company, expertise or her own nimble fingers, as needed.

Mending Circle times:
May 16, 17, 18 & 23, noon-5pm
Friday, May 20, 5pm until around 7 pm when Carolyn Halliday will lead a discussion with Libbie about her work.

And, remember, the Susan Hensel Gallery is always open Monday 10-5 and on other days by very generous appointment.

Progress toward performance

Intrepid. Deliberate. Calm.
The steps toward the performance Friday are being taken. Rather like planning for a mountainous trek, the Sherpas are gathered (Dale Kennedy, Dean Ebben Senior, Me), the materials organized and assessed. Weights and measures are taken.



The scene, from the metaphoric peak I seem to have imagined, is being set.
