When my friend Caitlin Parker moved across the country, we communicated by sending work back and forth.
Our letters were cyanotypes and stitches and dyed cloth.
Our stories dotted with dandelions and ferns and new found plants in our varied landscapes.
& now one of our finished works is in an auction to benefit @craftcontemporary. We are thrilled.

Causality. When disparate elements are combined or random materials are stacked, when unlikely shapes are forged or incongruent designs are assembled, whether situationally mounted or unconventionally installed, this mishmashing, this mixed-amalgamation incites a new visual equilibrium. Our contemporary world is made up of this dynamism—an unceasing revel of cause and effect. Artists who define this make up this exhibition.
Artists: Paula Barr, Sarah Bednarek, Ali Della Bitta, Daniel John Gadd, Brece Honeycutt, Ellen Letcher, Trevor King, Elizabeth Murray, Judy Pfaff, Wade Schaming, Christopher Vazquez, Greg Wall
