LINEAGE
Past, Present, and Future at The Red Door Gallery
Opening reception Febraury 6th 2009 6-10 pm
Communiqué Installation by Kimberley Campisano
The spiral nature of memory and history can rarely be unpacked, but seem to arrive like embalmed messages or communiqués, preserved although never exact. Different combinations of our lives' stories and those of our ancestors can reveal networks that open our understanding of who we are in relation to others – past and present. Any given view of history and memory can shape the stories we tell ourselves and the connections we make. Where am I, where are WE in all of this? Everywhere…
Featured Artist Kimberley Campisano traces the nature of Lineage in hopes of rendering a process of memory in order to honor the past, present, and future of humanity.
The Red Door Gallery will also feature the amazing work by Elders in our community, through a connection with the powerful organization Art with Elders ( http://www.eldergivers.org/aboutus/ ).
