Being Human

Being Human is an exhibition of artwork curated by Natasha Arselan that explores the human condition and its multitude of innate qualities and contradictions. Imbued with themes of consciousness vs. subconsciousness, intimacy, vitality, memory, mark-making, creativity, spirituality, anatomy, and form, the exhibition showcases the work of six international artists, including Ridley Howard, John Fou, Dannielle Hodson, Olivia Springberg, Billy Vanilli, and J. Carino.

The exhibition will be on view from August 7, 2024, to October 2, 2024, by appointment Monday through Friday, from 9 AM to 6 PM.

"In recent times, I have found it confusingly complicated, quite simply being human. This exhibition has given me the opportunity to explore visually and conceptually, viscerally and metaphysically, our relationships to people, places, things, and to ourselves in an attempt to find more similarities than differences." Natasha Arselan
