Lauren Fensterstock: Some Lands Are Made of Light
15 November 2024 - 18 January 2025Claire Oliver Galery is proud to announce Some Lands Are Made of Light, a solo exhibition of new intimately-scaled sculptures and jewel encrusted drawings by Lauren Fensterstock. In response to our current climate of political polarization and social upheaval, Fensterstock seeks to create works that offer moments of reflection and inner peace. Believing that each person can be an agent for positive change—within themselves, their community, and the greater universe—she uses her devout meditation practice as an entry point for these new works. Some Lands Are Made of Light offers viewers a space to contemplate and reflect within the organic and spectral frameworks embodied by her sculptures and smal-scale charcoal and embedded Swarovski crystal works on paper. -
