Corwin Levi's flower paintings transport the viewer into a vortex of nostalgic, youthful wonderment. The fantastical imagery of his work is so visually commanding that the intensity of dreams, ideas, and space are literally punched through the canvas.

Pam Rogers' work propels viewers into a nurturing, cocoon-like state of being. Using the natural world as a set focus, both her paper based and sculptural installations evoke a sense of their own potential for organic growth in the viewer. The quite nature of plants and vegetation transcend the canvas and become something of an unrequited mentor, demonstrating patience, empathy, and the innate struggle to survive.
