There is no one who makes more distinctive three dimensional forms than Dickson Carroll. This new exhibition, which celebrates form, color and function in all the overlapping complexity of carved and manipulated wood and in the readily identifiable palette which is solely Carroll's, is as pleasing to look at as it is accomplished in its execution.

This exhibit, featuring a series of abstract wall pieces, incorporating mirrors, brings together the architect and artist, the craftsman and dreamer. These bright fantasies are concrete, engaging and provide food for thought. Carroll, in whichever scale he works, provides us, the viewers, with a Through the Looking Glass glimpse at the possibilities of his world.
