Gallery Protocol Summer Sessions is pleased to present Ocular Obscure, an exhibition by Lydia Dildilian and Hilary White, with additional works from guest artist Paden DeVita. Encompassing a range of practices such as painting, sculpture, installation, and video, Ocular Obscure brings together the divergent, yet complimentary visions of these artists to address what might be referred to broadly as ‘the unseen.’ As the exhibition title suggests, Dildilian and White create works that call our attention to what is often hidden or obscured; works that operate as visual and material corollaries, pointing to the covert structures that underlie the visible world.
Ranging from revelatory to defamatory in tone and private to political in disposition, these works alternately celebrate, question and condemn the presence and authority of the invisible, unsearchable systems that surround us.
Join us June 5, 7 - 10PM for an opening reception featuring special performances by Portland-based, experimental art and noise duo MSHR and Gainesville's own Ironing. Our friends FED Food Company will also be on-hand with delicious food available for purchase.
