October 26 - November 9
Opening Reception: Sunday, October 27th, 6-8pm
If you had the opportunity to rewrite your own narrative, where would you start? “Everything Remains” explores our own encounters with regret, missed connections, and things left unsaid. Is it worth holding back the truth to spare each other from the hurt? We encourage viewers to reflect on their own longing and embrace the terror of speaking one’s mind. The combination of installation, letters, poetry, and drawings documents a shared attempt to reach across time and distance - both literal and metaphorical - to create our own closure. This collection is a lesson in the permanence of our interactions; a practice in noticing the things that haunt us, where our retroactive and misplaced vulnerability instills the importance of acting before it’s too late.
