About Our Current Exhibition



Material Prophecies: Craft as Divination
This group exhibition brings together artists who turn to craft to divine memory, enact ritual, and seek knowledge of the future. Working with earth, fiber, metal, cyanotype, terracotta, and film, they carry ways of understanding the world passed through generations, giving form to what is felt, inherited, and unseen.
