Storytelling will feature the work of Lindsay Jordan, a recent MFA graduate of San Francisco Art Institute.
“Caught in a collision between child and adult, two reoccurring figures inhabit the most recent series of paintings. The wild hair and grasping hands give the pair an air of feral instinct, while their few worn garbs of tailored and modern design imply an origin somewhere within society. Bright enamel nail polish decorates a gnarled claw. Hard carnival candy litters a wounded beast. The unearthly nature of the watercolor on paper adds to the romantic posturing of the body and lends fragility to the figures’ state of mind. Performing the behavioral slips between animal and human, the figures are the quarry of a much larger and unseen hunter, finding themselves in a dialogue of misplacement and ethereal existence.”

Other artists include, Jayne Chandler, Susan Freedman, Julia Henning, London A. Lunoux, Chris Palmer and Donald Skinner showcasing a variety of mediums.
