Craighead Green Gallery will present a new group exhibition featuring the works of three artists: Pamela Nelson, Heather Gorham, and Chris Mason. The show brings together painting and sculpture, to explore themes of color, perception, and the human experience.

Nelson’s work in "Light = Color" is a joyous celebration of spring, colorful renewal and the interplay of light. Her pieces weave painted colors together, evoking symphonic harmonies. The exhibition connects to her 2007 NorthPark installation, "Color Equations." The realization that color is the result of different wavelengths of light paired with the combination of various colors reflects the essence of her installation at NorthPark.

Gorham’s "Everyday Saints & Ordinary Things Only Bigger" offers two distinct yet interconnected bodies of work. In her paintings, she introduces an imagined pantheon of "helpers"—saints, designed to carry our burdens, both large and small, providing solace and humor in turbulent times.

Mason’s wire sculptures explore the human figure in motion, drawing inspiration from both High Renaissance figurative art and the dynamic energy of comic books. Mason crafts expressive, suspended figures that capture the essence of movement and the spirit of perseverance. His "wire climbers" evoke both strength and fragility, playing with perception as viewers interpret the figures as either ascending or descending. By preserving the integrity of the wire’s industrial nature, Mason highlights the raw simplicity of his medium while creating sculptures that defy expectations.

Together, Nelson, Gorham, and Mason create an exhibition that engages the senses, challenges perception, and celebrates the intersection of light, form, and perspective.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display through May 10.
