Lana Williams
Through November 27 - Lana Williams: Quiet Riot at Interface Gallery. In this small but very mighty show Williams lets no standard frame contain her, with her pieces seeming to strain at their limits and sometimes bursting clean out of their confines entirely. The quartet of artworks offer a powerful metaphor for what any marginalized person might feel carving out a place in society, and they take on major added significance given recent current events. I kept feeling a shiver running down my spine as I engaged with them this weekend in Interface's intimate space. Williams has created work that can neither be defined as mere painting or as sculpture, but inhabits a rich and unique existence in between.
