Have you ever shapeshifted? 

Encountered: Studies on Finding calls you to imagine the currents of unknown worlds. Our collection of paintings, film, and sound illuminates the work of emerging artists reckoning with perceptions of transformation. We invite you to enter the mutable space of unsettling, with offerings that reveal new realms and shared realities that exist just beyond the shift...

Encountered features paintings and visual works by emerging artists: Jadyn Fauconier-Herry, Emelia Gertner, Mary Rose McClain, and Anna Romanofsky set against sonic landscapes by Kambaba Jasper and A Lonely Wandering Meteor. The works in this show highlight a range of media and painting techniques centering the concept of shapeshifting as a recurring theme.

This showcase was born out of our fascination with transformation in the artistic process: the moment a film/painting/sound alters before you; the place(s) you go as part of the journey; how the art moves with and beyond you. Where do you shapeshift in your artistic practice? What sparks the shift and when does it end? Does it end?
