Working across media, from paper, ceramics, and mixed-media installation to photography, these eight women artists can be linked by their engagement with processes of play and material exploration. Often beginning with formal structures, be they geometric, architectural, or linguistic, the artists introduce elements of the crafted and the hand-made to produce energies that ultimately overspill these underlying frameworks; valuing process, their work allows us to see the exploration and craft of their art as part of its function and meaning. The eight artists in Structural Play produce work that in varying ways exceeds formal limits, engaging with the dynamics of play to create new models for how to view and comprehend the world around us.
Structural Play is on view from March 9, 2024-May 26th, 2024
