Geographies of a Shifting World
Fountain Street Gallery

First Friday Reception
Beginning September 30th, Fountain Street Gallery will exhibit “Geographies of a Shifting World,” featuring the work of Kathline Carr and Vicki McKenna. Carr and McKenna share an interest in elemental landforms and geological processes. Carr’s drawings, paintings, and monotypes are in conversation with McKenna’s photography-based prints. They implicitly share an interest in human interaction with the natural world. Their current work has a common focus of climate change. Carr utilizes multiples and repetitious mark-making allowing patterns, gestures, and forms to represent her feelings of despair and hopelessness about current climate. McKenna’s photo illustrations combine multiple images intended to collapse present and future into one image that suggests the result of sea level rise.
