Sandy Williams IV first thought of his idea for “Unattended Baggage” while traveling the Tube in London, his travels delayed until police could determine the contents of a piece of unattended luggage. The piece displays a timer, which resets each time it is moved or handled. Sandy writes of the work, “I began to think about our relationship to monuments and what they tell us about time. About the way that monuments tell you exactly how the space that they occupy has been used for a specific amount of time, and the way ideology is manifested and maintained. I began to think about the baggage that we carry with us, and the things around us that never move.” Come in and interact with “Unattended Baggage” in person! Sandy’s show will be on view until November 16.

Paintings develop in a transformative, process-based dialogue with forms and figures that resolve in their own time. Dové artist Madeleine Rhondeau says, “siren x silence is a series of work that I have been intensely dedicated to over the last year as my creative practice has evolved. I am beyond excited about this opportunity to present my work to my hometown of Charlottesville.” “siren x silence” will be on view until November 16th.

Sandy Williams IV placed old notebooks and sketchbooks into a chest before pouring bronze overtop, creating the work, “If A Tree Falls”. The work, Sandy explains, like Schrodinger’s Cat, asks the question, “If no one ever hears my thoughts, were they real? If I write down everything, does someone have to read it?” Come and ponder the nature of reality in Sandy’s exhibition, “All the Time I Feel Like Crying”, on view until November 16!
