Future Exhibitions at Gallery221
What lies beyond: Ashley Ortiz-Diaz and Janelle Young
September 30 – November 21, 2019
Gallery3 | 3rd floor DLRC
Reception: Thursday, November 14, 5 – 8 p.m.
Panel discussion to begin at 6 p.m.
Co-curated by Amanda Poss and Phillip A. Townsend, What lies beyond Gallery3 presents recent work by artists Ashley Ortiz-Diaz and Janelle Young. Moving deftly between physical expanses and psychological topographies of the self, the selected artworks by Ortiz-Diaz and Young question our understanding of matter, materials, and what lies beyond our perception of the known world. Including drawings, photographs, prints, and found objects, What lies beyond encourages viewers to consider the liminal spaces between what was and what lies ahead—the spheres of transitions, pauses, and the unknown.
