Join us Saturday 10/22 from 4-6 pm for Proximity - a conversation with the artists of Personal Space.


Chen Peng and Mike Ryczek begin their paintings with meticulous observation. Peng studies the objects of her daily life, looking for something that provokes an emotional response; Ryczek scours surveillance footage online, searching for the perfect fleeting moment. Although the artists are driven by different impulses, they both use this process as a means of understanding.


The paintings in Personal Space present normally inaccessible worlds stripped of their barriers. Both artists indulge the human, voyeuristic impulse to seek out hidden aspects of life, which feel more genuine for their closely guarded nature. Personal Space invites viewers to reconsider the mundane and find beauty in the seemingly inconsequential objects and activities that comprise our selves. Read more about the exhibition here.


Masks are encouraged.
