Los Angeles art critic, Shana Nys Dambrot, describes thread/bare as an exhibition in which “threads converge and commonalities are laid bare among a group of artists who each in their own way pursue the elusive connections between nature, experience, and abstraction.” The exhibition concept began with the idea that history is always personal, but evolves into wider threads that explore the nature of being in the world and “the transformative, even alchemical, effects of art-making as an action.”
