These pieces are executed on glass with chunky strokes of oil and spray paint - with freedom to explore beyond the boundary of the frame. The DOUBLE EXPOSURE series broadly reflects aspects of a landscape aesthetic —real and imagined. Surrounded daily, living in Southern California, with stunningly vibrant, whimsical and breathtaking natural beauty, from the Pacific Ocean beaches to the high desert mountains, Cathy is inspired and motivated to capture her experience of nature. Likewise her subject and material choices reflect concern for climate change and sustainability. Date | January 8 through January 28.

From the KPBS weekend arts preview, Nov. 18, 2021: Let's give this one the best title award. New York-based artist Marina Zurkow will launch her residency at ICA North (formerly Lux) in Encinitas with a reception on Friday. The exhibition is immersive (artistically speaking, not aquatically) and will transform the gallery space. Zurkow's work is informed by the space between human civilization and ocean, the uneven relationship between the two, and, of course, human impact. Sculptural elements will include actual local marine debris (smell included), and the installation will feature several generative video works that will transform throughout the residency. Details: Marina Zurkow's residency begins with an opening reception Friday from 6-8 p.m. and will be on view through Jan. 30, 2022. Regular gallery hours are Thursday through Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. ICA North, 1550 S El Camino Real, Encinitas. $0-10 for the reception, pay what you wish gallery admission. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS.
