Stories From Pieces
In this rotating exhibit, new meanings emerge between works, where pieces placed together create a narrative that is richer, deeper, and more alive than any one alone.
Stories From Pieces
Take the following three pieces from The Aviary Collection:
Tired of Waiting—A young woman discovers she has wings. She is capable of taking off—doing amazing things, but she isn’t quite sure yet if she knows how to use them.
True Face 2—A young woman, turned a bit toward the viewer, pulls her hair back to reveal a gruesome wound on her cheek. She is building up her confidence—no longer afraid to face others.
In Flight—This woman is airborne—aboard an airship, no less—confidently taking control of her journey. And wow, that cheek is now bandaged, symbolizing healing and resilience across the pieces. She took a leap, left fear and doubt behind, and now soars independently.
Each piece is striking on its own. But together? They tell a story of transformation—of courage, healing, and soaring to fulfill potential. The connections between multiple works can alter the way we experience them. This is curation as storytelling, where connections shift their resonant frequencies, changing how they may resonate with you.
