GALLERY HIGHLIGHT
ASTROLOGICAL EFFIGIES: New Works by Rebecca Adey

Gemini Twins
Felt, fabric, fiber fill, wire, embroidery, sewing, vintage frames
2026

Commonly shown in Western Astrology as the celestial twins, Gemini is shown here as known in Native American culture, in the form of two deer. Rebecca shows their close relationship with a shared antler, binding the two together. Those under the sign of Gemini are considered to be highly social, intuitive, and graceful. The deer is a perfect symbol of these traits.

In Rebecca's sculpture, each deer maintains a personality all its own, and though connected, they seem at peace with their close relationship. The expressive quality of this piece and the subtle shift in gesture make it a stand out in a room of stand outs. We love the palette and meticulous attention to detail.

On view now through August 29th!
Gallery Hours: Tuesday-Saturday 10-5pm

The latest in the Blackwing Volume collection, The Birding Pencil, features colorful gradient designs, inspired by one of four North American birds: the Clark’s Grebe, Mallard, Green Jay, and Black Rail. In a world constantly vying for our attention, birding asks us to simply be present. It reminds us there is beauty all around us, waiting to be discovered. As amateur birders ourselves, we love these new pencils and the Volume 458 Zine that accompanies them!

The results are remarkably bright, smooth, and reliable pastels that are excellent for someone just getting into the medium or the professional artist.

Documenting Impermanence: New Drawings by Candace Greenberg-Thompson

Opening First Friday, September 4th from 5:00-8:00pm

The drawings in this collection demonstrate a mind that is still able to be mesmerized. Plant forms that bend and distort behind curtains that catch the breeze, acting as ships' sails- or movie screens, capturing overlapping shadowplays that create moving abstractions. Tonal shifts of such nuanced delicacy that they feel softer than the fabrics they depict. Rich passageways and bridges of heavy darkness that span pools of intense light manage to simultaneously give the sense of deep space, and two dimensional surface. Candace displays her mastery with the pencil and pushes the medium into the deep end of its capability.

We look forward to celebrating this amazing collection of artworks with you!
