Everything Sooner or Later is Part of Everything Else - Kate Chassner
Opening Reception: Oct. 6, 2023 6-9 PM
I am curious about the connection we have, as a society, to lost memories and traces of human histories. My collages are building on something known and creating something that is new, revealing the overlapping stories we all share that have become blurred in this current space it occupies. I am investigating my own memory and stories from my childhood through images and materials I have saved. Allowing for the misplaced pieces to the stories to open new narratives and expand our understanding. I see these works as a way of signaling that our narratives and histories are multilayered, overlapping, and open for interpretation. Leaning into the idea that our blurry memories are provoking a slippage between the real and unreal.
