Gallery Night
This April, Join us at our Kirkland gallery as we present an exploration of duality, materiality, and the human impulse to create meaning through form. Nino Yuniardi’s work begins with a playful yet intuitive investigation of food as both subject and language—blending color, texture, and composition as if orchestrating relationships between distinct personalities. His arrangements invite both contrast and harmony, reflecting the coexistence of opposing forces. This sense of duality continues in Blake Carter’s drawings, where energetic, seemingly crude figures are meticulously composed into rhythmic systems. From afar, the works read as abstract fields, but upon closer viewing, each figure reveals its individuality—suggesting a quiet meditation on sameness, difference, and the collective experience of community.
Milan Heger’s practice is rooted in a lifelong resistance to uniformity, shaped by his early years under a totalitarian regime. His work—spanning performance and mixed media—seeks authenticity and the essence of human expression, elevating the personal over the prescribed. Complementing this exploration, Kristy Swanson’s ink paintings distill visual experience into fluid abstractions, where line and color interact to form organic shapes. Ceramicist Tong Holzinger brings a tactile dimension to the exhibition, working in porcelain to honor both its material integrity and cultural lineage. Drawn to its purity and durability, Holzinger’s work bridges past and present.
