A Juried Exhibition, Brooklyn, NY, July 5 – July 29, 2018. This exhibit will explore ways that artists are interpreting the physical layering of material versus the metaphorical strata of meaning. Show us how—from the simplest drawing to the most complex sculpture—art has the power to invoke something more than what meets the eye.
