CURRENT EXHIBITION

Delve into the ever changing world of Tresa Walker, who—while battling seizures, medications, surgeries, and strokes—taught herself to paint with her non dominant hand, offering a raw, visceral depiction of her perseverance through years of medical trauma. Slightly Askew connects the links between the traumatic brain and an artist’s rebirth. 

Join us on this page of Tresa’s journey of creative revival. Slightly Askew will have its opening reception on October 1st 7:30-11pm and it’s closing reception October 15th 7:30-11pm. All other viewings by appointment only.
