New prints and drawings by Jen Craun navigate a journey of multiple roles, delineating the margins and process of migration to articulate and map the trajectory of both frustrations and hope. They explore the mixed and simultaneous compulsions to both leave and stay, waging perceptions of freedom and captivity, and the hopeful resolve to take flight.
Liz Maugans’ new body of work, I've Come Undone, reflects upon the overheard conversations of her mid-life circle of friends after drinking too much wine. These mixed mediations and charcoal text drawings brutally voice the real picture of the overworked and under appreciated: mothers and fathers, married types and those over forty with an unused yoga ball in the basement and an overused remote control in their hand.
