Exhibition Statement (provided by the curator)
A neighbor is most commonly someone we see everyday from our front porch, on our commutes, and in our community. Close proximity is inherent in the definition of a neighbor. The work in this exhibit explores next door neighbors, neighboring counties, potential neighbors, and even extraterrestrial neighbors. Together, these artists address the idea of place — the people, planets, yards, restaurants, objects, language, and landscapes that connect (or disconnect) us from community.
