About the Exhibition:
Dream Logic brings together artists Seth Butler, Dani Ruf, and Anna Pellicone. The artworks in this exhibition examine landscape, home, and personal history through a fantastical, uncanny, or dream-like lens. Utilizing painting, sculpture, and drawing, the artists blur the lines between fiction and reality.
Seth Butler constructs fantasy landscapes, based on photographs of real places, often defying logical perspective. His textural brushwork evokes the sensory experience of being in nature and immerses you into another world. Dani Ruf builds miniatures of her childhood home, each sculpture creates an eerie overtone to childhood memory. Using cardboard as the exterior material they appear simple, but upon further inspection the interior is a complex diorama. Anna Pellicone’s drawings and prints explore personal history and identity through reinterpreted photographs. Her unsettling scenes alter perspective and proportions and often hint at an unseen spirit presence.
Through each of their practices, Butler, Ruf, and Pellicone craft portals into otherworldly scenes where they contort and reenvision the reality of personal experiences and recollections.

Artist Statement from the artist: My artwork is an act of world-building, constructing queer, feminist spaces through textile and fiber-based craft techniques. Using symbols like windows, wooden boards, and bricks, I use rug-tufting, felting, and other fiber-based techniques to communicate themes of gender and domestic space. My work is firmly rooted in the use of craft mediums, tools, and skills.
By rendering hard objects in soft materials, distorting images, and subverting functionality, I make props and false facades that construct a theatrical space, existing somewhere between our lived reality and our dreams. My simple, bright color palette and minimal imagery indulge in the cliché. The never-changing skies feel as uncanny as they do serene. Softness is transformed into a language of its own, imbuing the work with the emotional, the comfortable, and the domestic.

This workshop is part of our exhibition programming. Capital Region fiber artist Jess Stapf will lead a wet felting workshop coinciding with her solo exhibition Fontanelle in our Atrium Gallery.

This workshop is great for beginners who haven’t worked with wet-felting before as well as for those who are more experienced.

About the Exhibition:
Intercut Realities explores collage as a method of combining disparate materials into a unified whole. Through both physical and digital collage techniques, augmented with layers of painting and drawing, the artworks in the exhibition fabricate narratives, challenge perspectives, and forge new visual connections. Featuring artists Benj Gleeksman, Alison Bachorik, Avery Hartranft, and Emily Tironi, the exhibition invites viewers into each of their personal tactile worlds of collage.
Benj Gleeksman pulls from American pop culture—old school rap, video games, skateboard graphics— creating humorous characters and scenes that echo cityscapes and industrial infrastructure. He layers text in his collages constructing relationships between image and text.
Alison Bachorik captures moments of human presence, manipulating and digitally collaging photographs to fabricate memories. Her work often verges on the absurd—an empty ski mask sitting in a pile of texture or a cigarette imbued with personality—devising humorous and unusual moments amongst recognizable objects.
Avery Hartranft explores their personal interior space, physically assembling with collage to create a metaphorical parallel to building a home. Their subtle mark-making is enacted with care as they render each element in both obscurity and clarity, suggesting passing of time and the colliding of moments in one space.
Emily Tironi uses her personal experience and knowledge as a disabled person to inform her practice. Using found books on disability as the base to her work, she collages, manipulates, and works on top of the pages. She juxtaposes these images with bright colors to challenge stereotypes around disability, opening up a conversation on the perspective of disability in our society and culture.
Gleeksman, Bachorik, Hartranft, and Tironi merge materials and media to reveal collage as an integral technique for conveying narrative, critique, and reconstruction.
