Stamp Gallery Exhibition: Palinopsia

11:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

In the exhibition "Palinopsia", Jill Stauffer, Margaret Walker, Trevon Jakaar Coleman, and Varvara Tokareva bring memory to the forefront of experience. Sculpture, photography, electronic art, projection, painting, and screenprinting are utilized as tools to re/create imprints of what echoes from each artists’ experiences. Each artist explores the ways in which images, events, and relationships linger in the personal and collective mind of place, culture, and time: emphasizing its malleability, playing with its perception, and considering how it relates to memory.
