Zoe Dohrmann, Jo Proctor, Zach Holtzclaw & Nancy Sexton: Impressions of the Ordinary

April 4 - 8, 2022

Reception: Thursday, April 7, 5 - 7 p.m. 

As artists, we are continually noticing beauty and meaning in the “ordinary”. For example, in the images submitted, you can see an appreciation for the color, shape, and pattern in a row of trashcans; the movement in a flow of tree branches; the complexity of form in backyard figs; and the distinctive forms and mannerisms of human beings.

As printmakers, we can use a variety of matrices and processes to explore the same idea in many ways. In our exhibition, we are expanding upon our initial encounters with the seemingly mundane, and investigating the extraordinary within the ordinary.
