Curated by: C. K-m
Opening: Friday July 12, 2012
The world can be flat, concrete, and without movement. The imagination is what creates movement by conceptualizing a place called the Imaginal. Entrance into this space happens in and through the art. The Imaginal is a liminal space between reality and fantasy; a place where composition, technique, and intention are not facsimile but authentic. Each interpretation of the Imaginal is a dérive through a personalized, aesthetic landscape. Come experience the Imaginal where each narrative reconstructs what abstracted reality means in contemporary America.
