About the exhibitions:

Artist, Reader, Writer II is a Member’s exhibition exploring the relationship between the written word and visual art through an exercise of comparison. By pairing an original artwork and a short accompanying text, artists form a union between the two objects creating a new conceptual relationship. The exhibition of pairings alters the experience of viewing artwork by the addition of written language.

Memories, Dreams, & Reflections is a solo exhibition by Deirdre Doyle, pairing everyday objects with art drawn from antiquity. She assembles toys, figurines and discarded objects, which in a new cohesive sculpture take on symbolic meanings as building blocks of a mythical world. By manipulating scale, color and context, Deirdre changes the objects’ significance and meaning; and injects mythological stories and allegorical themes. These stories and themes reemerge when a viewer creates their own mythological tale of the work’s creation.
