Barker looks beneath the postcard surface. Through three series of black-and-white images, Barker explores the Lowcountry as an accumulation of time, presence, and memory - deep surfaces, fragments of architecture, and natural forms that have endured. By removing color, the work strips familiar places down to line, texture, and atmosphere, allowing the Lowcountry to shift from a place we recognize into one we feel. Together, the highlighted series examine our region hidden in plain sight.  This is a portrait of place built in layers: what is seen, what is hidden, and what remains. In her exhibit, Dualities, Goose Creek based artist Lindsey Maldonado brings together a wide range of work across ceramics, pastel, watercolor and mixed media. Rather than focusing on a singular subject or palette, the featured works embrace contrast;  functional and sculptural, muted and vibrant, delicate and heavy. The collection reflects the fluid nature of creative practice and the coexistence of opposing ideas within the same body of work.

The public is invited to meet the artists at the gallery on Friday, June 5, during a free public reception from 5-7pm.
