“Compression”

Artists Elana Herzog and Luanne Martineau are the subjects of this dual show, which explores the combination and compression of materials in artistic works. Herzog works with found textiles and paper pulp, forming layered collages that demonstrate the ways in which experiences can be formed (and reformed) over time. Likewise, Martineau is a paper weaving and needle-felting artist who embeds explicit graphics in her work, recontextualizing images that cultural norms dictate as “improper.”
