"Remanence" Juan Cabrera & Melissa Walter Oct. 22 – Dec. 5 Gallery closed Nov. 10, Veterans Day, and Nov. 27 – 28, Thanksgiving Reception: Thursday, Oct. 30 | 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. Artist Talk: Thursday, Oct. 30 at 11:30 a.m. Second Reception: Saturday, Nov. 15 | 5-7 p.m. The interplay of memory versus reality in relation to the psychological and physical human experience is centered in this abstract exhibit of works by San Diego artists Juan Cabrera and Melissa Walter. Informed by her background in astrophysics, Melissa Walter’s mixed-media practice is deeply rooted in observation, research, and the translation of scientific concepts into abstract, minimalist works that investigate humanity’s place within the cosmos. Her process relies on conceptually informed mediums and techniques ranging from repetitive action and fine detail to digital renderings and sculptural abstractions. This focus on process is reflected in the work of Juan Cabrera, whose process involves manipulating found photographic source material to create works on paper depicting architectural dream spaces. Through his practice in watercolor and woodblock printmaking, he investigates emotional attachment to architectural interior space, layering disparate textures and images to reveal hidden tensions. Together, the work of these artists explores the nuances of memory as subjective experience, interrogating the possibility of objectivity and the limits of representation.
