Please join us for artist Pam Douglas’s solo show SIGHT at TAG, running September 26 to October 21. The opening reception is September 30, 5-8pm and there will be an artist talk on October 7th.
SIGHT evokes the courage to see what is happening. Douglas has enjoyed the metaphysical realms of vision in past works, and with this exhibition she continues her interest in the circle as an embrace of “oneness.” Amidst current national challenges, she felt these times call for boldness. That led her to images of women crying out in darkness, oil derricks spewing oil, the unflinching gaze of a woman inside a round sawblade, and the line from Thoreau beneath another work: “The question is not what you look at but what you see”. The work in this exhibition expands on themes that Douglas has visited before, but this time with an urgent plea to consider what our actions today will create in the world of tomorrow.
