'The Daily Marvel of the Commonplace'

Presented by Surface Gallery at Surface Gallery

Surface Gallery presents ‘The Daily Marvel of the Commonplace’ by local artist Diane Reeves.

About the Exhibit:

Our lives are a collection mostly of unremarkable things–most of our lives are the sort of things about which there will not be a novel.

And maybe this is the source of one of our collectively deepest fears: the casting of our imagination into the future to a time when no one remembers our name, and deeper, the dread that time might be right now.

As a kind of resistance to an amnesic reflex, this show aims a spotlight on the normally-discarded and thus takes hold of mundane, almost disposable things to show them, and us, in a rightful place as souvenirs of a life worth keeping, memoirs of the weight of our ordinary existence.
