Nona Hershey: In the Cloud In the
Cloud explores the
all-pervading influence of technology on our current
societal landscape. Amidst a climate where many are
persistently tethered to screens and coping with concerns
raised by climate change, the pandemic, and social media,
Hershey vividly encapsulates the omnipresent nature of our
digital lifestyle. Though we
can't see the signals emitted by our devices, Hershey
suggests their energy is palpable, shifting our perception
of time and place. We now find ourselves constantly
analyzing and digitizing our daily experiences, perceiving
the world in a pixelated manner.

Monica Ong: Planetaria Featuring
the work of Monica Ong, Planetaria
uniquely combines art and poetry to form an
inseparable fusion in which ideas, content, and design
coalesce within each individual artwork. The show includes
a variety of mediums, including images, star charts, pages
from old-style medical books, and a collaborative tarot
deck. The words
used in Planetaria
have special meanings; they not only provide information
but also guide the viewer through the emotional,
historical, and mythological elements of each piece.
