Opening January 15: Water Writes the Garden, a solo exhibition by Mary Mattingly that unites photographs, sculptures, and poetry around water’s role as timekeeper and storyteller. It explores how water makes marks and sculpts environments through cyclical formation and erosion. What does water remember? And what does it write into the landscape?
