Opening Sat. Jan. 15th, 7-11pm
Pandemic presents:

TRESPASS
Curated by Evan Robarts

 copyright Grear Patterson 2010

 A group show featuring 10 young artists working in different mediums and vernaculars. Along with the traditional meaning of the word, TRESPASS violates social conventions and openly engages in the taboo. TRESPASS places private moments in a public exhibition, where the act of viewing invades personal boundaries. TRESPASS questions established and preconceived notions of art.

TRESPASS is an action, a state of mind, an invitation.
___________________________________________________________

The show will feature a wide array of styles and mediums. Painting, sculpture, photography, video, and more. The artists themselves represent a new age of aesthetic visionaries and emerging inspirations. The visual mix, in perfect tandem, will provide a glimpse into a world of stimulating beauty often hidden from view.
