“This exhibition first came together in my mind, gathering contemporary artists’ use of dye as a material connected to labor. As stages of studio visits and writing emerged, I came to more associate this material binding to an elusive, yet pervasive “glass half empty” temperament in material work. The artists featured in this show sometimes use pooling as a formal device, and sometimes investigate damage and loss through the material lens focused on fluidity, employing staining, pooling, cleaning, and draining.”

-Jodi Hays, Summer 2024
