This three-person exhibition will highlight the work of Nina Earley, Stacey Piwinski and Brian Wilson. These three artists allow their artistic processes to be guided by memories and, each in their own way, depict people, places and things that trigger the return of these memories, transforming thoughts into forms of artistic expression.

Nina Earley combines alternative photographic processes and textiles, Stacey Piwinski uses unconventional hand-woven fabrics and painting, and Brian Wilson incorporates photography and sculpture creating a rich mix of material, process, and textures into one memorable exhibition.
