Are We Where Yet?
Organized by Leila Daw and Elisabeth Munro Smith

February 7, - March 3, 2013

Are We Where Yet? is an exhibition that explores sense of place, while mapping passages and connections to culture and community. In this show, ten mid-career artists with ongoing interests in: geography, ecology, and climatology offer multiple perspectives on important concepts, such as:

-how we experience and document our sense of place within culture and community, landscape and hardscape

-imprints of settlement and passages on the environment

-visualizing, inhabiting, and marking, spaces

-reflections on the search for personal and historical roots

Chosen from across the United States, the artists in this exhibition include: Stephanie Beck, Val Britton, Sigrid Burton, Christine Gedeon, Karey Kessler, Jenny Odell, Karen Shaw, Heidi Whitman, and the show’s organizers, Leila Daw and Elisabeth Munro Smith. Together, these artists are exhibiting small works embodying large perspectives. Their artwork spans a wide variety of media, including: painting, drawing, stitching, photography, digital prints, sculpture, collage/assemblage, and works on and of paper.
