The premise for this exhibition began with the desire to feature contemporary Salt Lake City based artists working in diversity of media as well as forms of expression. The sense of renewal--by its alchemical and apocalyptic themes--weaves through and binds together the works that otherwise may be only marginally related. In spite of the diversity of media, expression and personal styles, the art tends to reflect states of transcendence, representations of experience beyond ordinary thought and belief. From Maryann Webster's tattooed ceramic dolls, to Lewis Francis' haunting photographs of salt encrusted pylons, to Anne Watson's moving "painted journal" chronicling the passing of her mother, to Lincoln Lysager and David Ruhlman's imaginatively cryptic, mixed media panels, the sense of other-world-liness is strongly implied throughout this exhibit. Exhibit held in the Main Gallery space.
