SUMMARY:Beneath the Surface - Jordan Funk\, Aileen Khuu\, and Gwen Meharg
DESCRIPTION:Beneath the Surface – Jordan Funk\, Aileen Khuu\, and Gwen Meharg \nExhibition Dates: November 10 – 21 \nReception: November 13\, 6p – 8p \nOpen Hours by appointment \n  \nAileen Khuu\, Jordan Funk\, and Gwen Meharg partnered to present “Beneath the Surface\,” a group exhibition taking place in the Lightwell Room of The Boedeker Building. \n“Beneath the Surface” examines rocks as witnesses to time\, transformation\, and endurance. Rocks and humanity are formed through the convergence of minerals\, pressure\, and time\, embodying processes unfolding outside the scope of a human lifespan. Despite their complex histories\, rocks are objects we frequently overlook. Their quiet presence reflects how many human experiences go unseen or undervalued. Just as a rock’s true complexity goes beyond what appears on its surface\, people carry layered histories shaped by experiences that are not always visible. By bringing attention to these rocks\, “Beneath the Surface” invites viewers to slow down and reconsider what is not immediately visible. \n  \nInstagram: @aileen.khuu\, @jordan_nicole_funk\, @gwenmeharg

SUMMARY:You Know What You Oughta Do Is - Group Exhibition w/ Rule 6 Studios
DESCRIPTION:You Know What You Oughta Do Is – Group Exhibition w/ Rule 6 Studios \nExhibition Dates: November 10 – 21 \nReception: November 13\, 6p – 8p \nOpen Hours by appointment \n  \nThis exhibition will be a group show of artists from Rule 6 Studios in the Cedars district. The exhibition will highlight the diverse practices within the Rule 6 community—painting\, sculpture\, mixed media\, and installation—while emphasizing the collaborative studio culture that defines the space. \nTitled “You Know What You Oughta Do” the exhibition takes its name from a well-known phrase often shared by the late Dallas artist Albert Scherbarth. For many artists in the Cedars\, this line captures his open-ended invitation to think bigger\, experiment\, and push ideas further. \n  \nInstagram: @rulesixstudio

SUMMARY:iChronic - Maria Esswein
DESCRIPTION:iChronic – Maria Esswein \nExhibition Dates: November 10 – 21 \nReception: November 13\, 6p – 8p \nOpen Hours by appointment \n  \niChronic explores the relationship between one’s perception of real life and their online persona. Using ceramics and digital media\, the artist intersects traditional craft with our current fast-paced\, evolving digital age. Amid a constant influx of mixed messages\, the rise of Generative AI and AI companions\, and the demand for instant gratification\, the work questions the line between what is considered real\, true\, factual\, and socially acceptable. \nMaria Esswein is a Fort Worth-based artist and a Cohort V alumna. She recently joined Easyside as a studio artist and serves on the board of the Texas Sculpture Association. Esswein’s work focuses on gender\, art\, and social media subcultures through a feminist perspective and a metaphorical presence of “ghosts.” How one interacts with a ghost in real life\, pop culture\, literature\, and other media determines the relationship the individual has with a certain memory or belief. Her recent body of work navigates finding a healthy balance between the virtual and real world. \n  \nInstagram – @a_glass_of_esswein

SUMMARY:a practice in lingering - Victoria Brill
DESCRIPTION:a practice in lingering – Victoria Brill \nExhibition Dates: November 10 – 21 \nReception: November 13\, 6p – 8p \nOpen Hours by appointment \n  \n‘a practice in lingering’ invites us to stay a while. In this intimate\, contemplative exhibition\, Dallas-based artist Victoria Brill presents new paintings and works on paper alongside a sculptural installation of water\, stone\, and candlelight. \nDrawing on Byung-chul Han’s ‘The Scent of Time\,’ which argues for lingering in an age when time has lost its duration\, the exhibition is a reminder to be still: to pause and melt into a moment\, whether present\, remembered\, or dreamed. \nLingering thoughts\, lingering dreams\, lingering touch. The works are small moments of this kind\, slivers of the artist’s inner dialogue that have occupied her periphery in recent months. As always in her work\, the figure takes her own form\, floating in a placeless space\, communing with more of herself. Some figures hold their full color while others thin to contour and underpainting\, still forming or already going. To linger\, here\, is also to let go. \nWithin the space\, a raised installation of shallow\, water-filled pools of white pebbles and slowly burning candles draws from the votive candle fonts of spiritual spaces and the tide pools of her Pacific Northwest childhood. Visitors are invited to select a candle at the entrance\, light it\, and add it to the installation\, leaving their own presence to linger among the small lights of others who have also been there. \n  \nVictoria Brill (b. 1996\, Oregon) is a Dallas-based artist whose work turns the lens of figurative painting inward\, using self-portraiture to explore identity as an evolving\, layered experience. Working across oil painting\, works on paper\, and mixed media\, her figures are often translucent and caught in mid-emergence\, rendered in soft washes and visible underpaintings that highlight emotional states in flux. \nHer figures frequently appear doubled or mirrored\, embodying moments of reflection\, grief\, and renewal. These works are set against pristine\, unpainted canvas or paper\, existing in a liminal space between the material and the imagined. Recent pieces draw on childhood memories of the Pacific Northwest coastline\, where sea stacks and tide pools—shaped by their environment but never quite tethered—serve as metaphors for the body’s resilience and solitude. Like these coastal forms\, Brill’s figures are suspended in a constant process of becoming\, negotiating between past and future selves. \nBrill holds a BA in Visual and Performing Arts with a Minor in Art History from the University of Texas at Dallas (2018). She was awarded the Clare Hart DeGolyer Memorial Fund by the Dallas Museum of Art in 2018 and is a Cohort IV artist alum of The Cedars Union residency (2023-2025). Her work has been exhibited widely in the Dallas-Fort Worth area\, including at the Texas Vignette Art Fair (2022\, 2023\, 2024). Most recently she has been included in presentations outside of the state\, including 40 under 40 (2025) curated by Jennie Goldstein\, Curator of the Collection at The Whitney\, and the Cimarron National Works on Paper survey (2025) at the Oklahoma State University Art Museum. She is currently the Director of Erin Cluley Gallery and serves on the board of Texas Vignette as Vice President and Programming Chair. \n  \nInstagram: @victoriajbrill \n

SUMMARY:A Sunset Beyond the Horizon - Nadia Blanton
DESCRIPTION:A Sunset Beyond the Horizon – Nadia Blanton \nExhibition Dates: November 10 – 21 \nReception: November 13\, 6p – 8p \nOpen Hours by appointment \n  \nThis exhibition is a solo project curated and produced by artist and floral designer\, Nadia \nBlanton. It presents a body of work that explores femininity and the symbolic language of \nnature. \n  \nWorking primarily in drawing and painting\, I use organic forms\, flowing linework\, and layered \ncompositions to create images that feel alive and vibrant. I practice reconnecting with the \nnatural world and draw inspiration from its ever-changing temperament. Oscillating between \ndefinite representational forms and symbolic abstract expression. \n  \nFloral and abstract imagery appear throughout the works as a central visual language. I often \nconsider themes of the earth and the celestial\, love\, and the small yet profound moments that \ndefine personal narratives. Each work explores the joining of visual art and written word\, \nspecifically through the lens of my poetry. These poems are either directly quoted\, subtly \nreferenced\, or echoed through recurring visual motifs. \n  \nI am interested in how particular shapes or linework gestures can function like \nmetaphors—creating lively and kinetic movements. The process starts with writing\, sketching\, \nand photographic documentation to inform the final artworks . I aim to create a cohesive body \nof work that is both personal and universally resonant. \n  \nInstagram: @nadiasunangel \n
