Artifacts of affection

Features the expanded paintings and sculpture by Rachael Zur. The works for the exhibition center on a room's ability to hold the essence of a person after they are no longer in the space. Zur believes that there is a residue of lives lived embedded in the rooms that we move through, and in the objects that artists make. Though this work depicts ordinary objects from living rooms belonging to people she has loved and lost, it's not grief that she is interested in conveying in her work, but the residue of the affection that is left behind.
