About the Exhibit

Each artist brings something personal and authentic to this visual conversation. They engage thoughtfully with their materials and at the same time offer insight into their personal experiences and landscapes. 

Christen Humphries uses paper as a traditional support for her nature-themed drawings. She uses a range of media—graphite, gouache, and/or watercolor.

Bonny Leibowitz creates 3-dimensional objects that occupy and command the space surrounding them. As Leibowitz says, “I like to think of my work as fragments of a blown apart reality, reconstructed into a landscape—both physical and internal—where forms collide and conjoin in myriad nuance and potential.”

David Willburn injects meaning into the mundane and creates work that can hint at whimsy. As Wilburn states, “My canvases, panels, and works on paper hold small collections of images, colors, materials, and objects, and there is serenity in that.”
