"Facing the Sublime in Water, CA offers metaphors - both explicit and implicit - for the timeless idea that constraints and desperation can provide constructive applications and outcomes - unexpected or not - in a variety of social, political, and personal contexts. Whether accidentally or on purpose, constraints can make an idea, an action, or an object fluid. That conflict is at the core of the content of this show." -- Exhibition webpage
