This exhibition highlights the diversity of the processes and ideas that motivate every individual artist. Yet there is, as author Patrick Frank writes in the catalogue essay.

“I am exploring painted surface techniques through color, form, and signature shapes. Small, standardized panels free me in a process that focuses upon one element and follows with groupings of resulting images into larger installations. Painted front and back, the individual pieces morph into three dimensional objects.” - Tressa R. Miller
