In the hustle and bustle of our busy lives, we all need a place where we can go to reflect, re-center, and restore our energy. Artist Frank Gonzales brings this reverent energy to the artwork he creates, making each canvas a sacred space for the plant and animal beings he represents. These meditations allow us to share in the wonder of the natural world and reflect on our relationship to it.

For many, the stereotypical American Dream depicted in media and pop culture is a narrative that no longer fits, and they are finding freedom by writing their own story. Artists Kat Davis and Brianna Noble were raised in what they perceived to be traditional American homes, but as adults, their lives are anything but traditional. For this exhibition, both of the artists dive into their respective domestic spaces to redefine what living the American Dream looks like from the inside out.
