Opening this August, Intervals of Mark and Matter brings together the work of KC Crow Maddox, Karen Dana Cohen, Evan Mazzelan, Amelia Mendelsohn, Ivan Montoya, Thương Hoài Trần, and Antonio Scott Nichols. These artists approach painting as a site of translation where material, image, and lived experience converge. Drawing from personal and cultural narratives, the artists engage themes such as family, mythology, migration, and identity to construct works that feel both intimate and expansive.
