​The Unity of Everything

Featuring contemporary artwork by
Deborah Barlow, Nandini Chirimar, Lorrie Fredette, Elizabeth Mead, Liz Whitney Quisgard, Andra Samelson, and Daniel Zeller

The artists brought together for this exhibition think about unity, and everything. They think about the unity of everything - as futile and as real as this proposition is. There is a distinctive abstraction present in the work. Much of the naturalness within this work is curved - circle-like in not only the creation of form, but in the navigating of beginning to end in the process of creating something new. 

Deborah Barlow's work is fully and imaginatively present. Inhabiting the imagination is to enter a realm of unity. Lorrie Fredette, Andra Samelson, and Daniel Zeller explore a similar terrain to Barlow's. What differs is a distant nodding to the visuals scientific exploration feed us. Cellular structures, chains of nucleic codes. streams of planetary plasma, the curving flow of lava, and unfolding of a tress rings: the mystery of these structures os echoed in their work, and beneath these echoes, like distant universal big bang radiation, we sense a grand unity.

Liz Quisgard and Nandini Chirimar also work with patterning as an organizing visual principle. What differentiates their work is the cultural legacies of the patterning. Both are influenced by traditional Indian and Persian patterns, the abstraction of seed forms found in paisley prints, and those woven elegantly into Persian rugs. Elizabeth Mead's work is an unfolding of surface giving way to deeper surface.
