William Townsend: Painting Alberta, Details Of Canada

, - To July 1

Printmaker and animator Alyson Provax’s solo exhibition, you i everything else, is about inherited memories and behaviors. It draws upon the language of the TV show The Bachelor (as does another Portland artist, Hannah Piper Burns). Letterpress prints, light boxes, animations, and mirrors isolate words and phrases often repeated by participants on the show, from season to season. As Provax points out, “Loneliness exists not in solitude but in concealment.”
