Reservoir at Intersect Arts Center

January 14, 2020

I am pleased to be included in the exhibition Reservoir at the Intersect Arts Center in St. Louis, MO!

This exhibition will have two components. Digraph will consist of text-based or written work.  Please submit poems, quotes, journals, thoughts, manifestos, books, readings, or text-based wall work that responds to the theme of rest//work. This work could be original or simply existing text that is relevant or could be shared or performed in some way.  Digraph will be a year-long text-based exploration of relationships, with various programming, performances and installations, with the first installment exploring work//rest.

In tandem with Digraph, Intersect Art Gallery will mount Reservoir, an exhibition of visual and performance-based artworks, also responding to the theme of work//rest. The title for the exhibition is drawn from a quote by Bernard of Clairvaux, β€œThe man who is wise, therefore, will see his life as more like a reservoir than a canal. The canal simultaneously pours out what it receives; the reservoir retains the water till it is filled, then discharges the overflow without loss to itself.”  This exhibition seeks to curate a compendium of collective wisdom, struggle, reflection, suggestion, healing, and hope as we all live out this precarious counterpoise of work and rest.

EXHIBITION RUNS JANUARY 25 - APRIL 3 | OPENING RECEPTION: JANUARY 25 - 6-9PM
