CRYSTAL GREGORY Opening at Soapbox Arts Gallery

The Ocean Never Gives Up - Works by Crystal Gregory

Opening Friday October 24 at 5.30

From Soapbox: Mark those calendars for our last opening reception of the 2025 season! Our next full blown art party won't be happening until March of 2026, so you DEFINITELY don't want to miss this one!

Join us on FRIDAY (I know we usually hold events on Thursdays, so please take note!), October 24th from 5:30 - 8pm to celebrate our first solo exhibition of original sculptures by Kentucky-based artist, Crystal Gregory!
 

The Ocean Never Gives Up features a collection of natural dyed silk wall sculptures by Kentucky-based artist, Crystal Gregory. A study in gestures of contrast and connection, the works - some stilling woven textiles in cast concrete, others suspending multi-dimensional weavings in motion with metal frames - explore movement as it is defined by the outlines of our material landscape. The movement through a landscape, the pliability of a textile, and the rigidity of their gridded systems are considered in relation to social structures of citizenship, community frameworks, and intersecting parts of a whole. The Ocean Never Gives Up ultimately suggests a consideration of these systems as boundaries and edges framing the rhythms of life within.
