For Hidden in the Sky, Kate MacDonnell presents richly colored and textured imagery depicting enigmatic phenomena found in the day and night sky. Like stills from a movie, the images set a context inviting the viewer to fill in bits of the narrative or enjoy the open-endedness. This is her second solo exhibition with the gallery.
