Take a Moment
Exhibition Dates: September 1 - December 11, 2019

How do we make sense of the busy world around us? For two Phoenix area artists, it means making art that requires people to stop, look and think. Paige Reesor’s tiny paintings of local buildings and popular landscapes make familiar sites seem newly discovered again. She creates these images with hopes that people will revisit these popular locations in their minds. Gina DeGideo’s work is also about pausing to observe and appreciate the things she sees and experiences. She purposely takes time during her day to take photographs. The process helps her to slow down, and really think. This exhibition explores how two artists use art making to center themselves amid the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Both artists share their work in hopes that viewers will also be drawn in and take a moment to enjoy.
