in Open Door Gallery
The Open Door Gallery presents an exhibit which explores the separation of self and environment. Kimball Anderson is an artist whose experiences of chronic fatigue syndrome and agoraphobia inform the art he creates, manifesting in themes of isolation, recursion of self, inaction, and first person experience. The artwork explores the quiet and the gentle, while searching for something ambiguous underneath and reflects the period when the artist began to overcome agoraphobia and enter the world.
Kimball Anderson - Inside/Outside. July 29 - November 8, 2013.
Reception: October 3, 2013, 4pm to 7pm.
Featured during the reception is a theatrical presentation of Kimball's abstract comic "I Don't Get It" at 6 pm. The piece explores ambiguities around identity and interpersonal relationships.
