This event has ended.

Smith’s recent work continues her exploration of the patterns of landscape seen from above. The pieces stem, in part, from her own aerial-view photographs, five of which are included in the exhibition. The photographs, in stark black and white, reveal both the linear markings of surface elements (roads, rivers, houses, plow-lines) and puzzling subterranean features that suggest overlays of archeological digs. Drawing from these images and ideas, Smith exhibits a series of three-dimensional constructions of wood –- both milled and found, painted and raw –- that focus primarily on the play of line against plane.
