SUMMARY:CHASM: Intuition\, Risk\, and Certainty
DESCRIPTION:CHASM Exhibition Catalogue\n \n\n\nDates: Sept 12\, 2025 to Feb. 2\, 2026\n\n\n\nCHASM: Intuition\, Risk\, and Certainty is a poetic conversation between material and meaning. This exhibition\, inspired by abstraction and consciousness\, features the work of Helen Frederick\, Madalyn Marcus\, and Randi Reiss-McCormack. Though their practices differ\, all three artists center around the physical act of creation\, the unpredictability of materials\, and the embrace of when the art “speaks back.” These artists welcome intuition and the unknown. \nFrederick’s collaborative pieces with Chris Mona are rich in symbolism and layered meaning. The textured handmade paper and her imagery evoke environmental and emotional landscapes\, inviting reflection on impermanence\, time\, and transformation. Marcus’s rhythmic paintings translate fleeting sounds into permanent colors. Her compositions reverberate\, finding balance in the tension between opposites. Reiss-McCormack creates mixed-media works that blend playfulness with sincerity. Her collages are richly layered drawings that reflect a studio practice grounded in ritual and adaptability to shifting rules and forms. \nThis exhibition also includes works from the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection at the University of Virginia. These pieces form a complex mosaic of translating the natural world into imagery. Together\, the works on display invite viewers to engage intuitively\, seek cross-cultural inspiration\, and connect their inner experiences with the external world. \n\n\nPiece info:Helen Frederick with Chris MonaIn The Time Of Not Yet\, 202436×30”screen print\, chine collé on custom made paper

SUMMARY:Together\, Again
DESCRIPTION:Together\, Again is a collection of magical\, familiar\, and tender moments found in the work of Cozbi A. Cabrera. This artist\, dollmaker\, quilter\, and author takes notice and finds meaning present in everyday experiences. Whether cooking a meal\, doing your hair\, or walking in the rain\, the soul is nurtured and cultivated in our mundane. \nRooted in family\, shared memories\, and the warmth from care\, Cabrera’s themes are present in a variety of mediums. Her paintings\, textiles\, and dolls bring moments of joy\, strength\, and guidance found in family and friends. These mediums\, stitched together like a quilt\, bring parts together and form moments filled with stories\, remembrance\, and hope.  \nThe world can be an unexpected and challenging place\, but with Cabrera’s stories and pictures we find gifts of wonder and treasured objects of comfort. Through this exhibition you are invited to experience the world through Cabrera’s eyes and hands – where pictures speak\, detail breathe\, and stories found on canvas and cloth reaffirm what is near and dear to our heart. \nThis exhibition celebrates the 10th iteration of the LCVA’s annual Arts and Letters exhibition series. Showcasing the best in the art of children’s literature\, this exhibition is proudly presented in conjunction with the Virginia Children’s Book Festival. \n  \n \nCozbi A.
