Once the surprise wears off, the shows seem quite, well, healthy. Lee Leckey's long rectangular acrylic is one of the robust portraits. The untitled painting morphs easily, forcefully, from totem to nude woman. The skin is a needling patchwork of colors and treatments. The C-print is a stirring still life of boats anchored in a harbor.
Water reflects painted hulls boldly, in dynamic swags of red and blue.
The ground is a smooth russet carpet. A tree is a mysterious blue. Sunlight bends like a river, and veils like gossamer. The atmosphere brims with cheeky anticipation. M. Avigail Upin's silver vessels are three of the engaging craft pieces.
