We’re excited to host our first exhibition from our new 2023/2024 Visual Gallery Curatorial Resident Zoey Dalbert! Zoey has invited Chicago artist Marlee Chylstek to present a full gallery show titled ‘Kingdoms’. The exhibition showcases a selection of paintings and drawings from the interdisciplinary artist and dancer. The work focuses on fleeting feelings, rumination on mortality, joy, and fear. Chlystek uses constant change, reflection, and music to inspire her works creating an otherworldly, abstract view on life.

Chlystek describes her process starting with visualizing feelings in time, thinking of their motions and capturing that into her pieces. The work is often flipped, twisted, and rotated during its development, recording the change and shift in the work with the fleeting emotions they are inspired by.

The show will be up through January 2024, so come through to this opening or any Elastic event to see the work!
