Kandy G Lopez: (In)visible Threads
Kandy G Lopez, a multidisciplinary Afro-Caribbean American artist, critically engages with the complexities of identity and marginalization. Lopez’s fiber-based artworks serve as a powerful medium to navigate the intricacies of ancestry, race, class, and gender. As an artist, Lopez is driven by a desire to represent marginalized individuals who inspire and move her, constantly seeking challenges both materialistically and metaphorically. Her works are born from a deep-seated need to explore and learn about her people and culture, fostering a dialogue between the artwork and the viewer. This exhibition features her large-scale fiber works – portraits “painted” with yarn.
Andrew Thompson: The Pleasure of Being Wrong
Andrew Thompson, a photographic artist from San Bernardino, California, uses palm trees and power lines and thread to explore the mythologized landscape of Southern California. The region, once inhabited by indigenous tribes such as the Tongva, Cahuilla, Kumeyaay, and Serrano, with their rich cultural heritage, is now dominated by non-native plants and a commercial skyline. Thompson’s photographs capture the ubiquity of these elements which have come to represent contemporary Southern California. Thompson also sews onto these images foregrounding the built environment as well as the presence of the artists hand. “Photography is replete with rules for taking good pictures. This body of work is the result of ignoring and reimagining those rules.”
