Boundaries of the Self is an examination of how we construct ourselves in relation to social norms, family history, identity politics, and geographies, often in conflict with the desire to be seen as an individual. The exhibition brings together the work of six emerging artists whose practices explore the tension between individual needs and the needs of the collective. Through varied perspectives and personal narratives, the artists examine what it means to belong, both to oneself and within a community. The artists in this exhibition share an interest in medium as a “mediator” of the boundaries between self and others, while connecting lineages of craft and tradition.
