Each painting in Kristy Deetz’s "Through the Veil" series begins with her rendering a closely observed fabric with wrinkles and folds. The fabric in these paintings acts as a threshold that places the viewer into multiple, often conflicting, layers of space and meaning. The paintings utilize imagery from pop, outsider, and high culture. This re-contextualizing of the familiar aids in a reconsideration that allows the viewer to make new relationships to the imagery.
Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display through November 12.
