March openings:
1st and 3rd Friday Openings at participating galleries

Saturday, March 7
David B. Smith Gallery
Opening receptions, 5-8 pm
The Illusion of Paradise, a solo exhibition by San Diego, CA-based Peruvian artist Sylvia Fernandez in the main gallery, and The Idiot's Defense, a solo exhibition by Denver, CO-based artist Dmitri Obergfell in the project room. Corporeal experience, informed by internality and influenced by personal subjectivity, registers immediately upon entering Fernandez' The Illusion of Paradise. Floating throughout the gallery, as if sifting through a floating archive, viewers experience Fernandez's dreamlike compositions like flashes of forgotten memories. Tracing our attention over a ghostly, shadow-cast embrace, whispers seem to be audible. The senses come alive in The Illusion of Paradise, aided by a layered presentation of works that mimics the strata of perception on a journey inward.

Obergfell presents a series of sculptures including vases, figural sculpture, smoking paraphernalia, and a chess set set atop clear pedestals and custom wood furniture. Blending functional design objects and sculptural elements as well as combining both ancient and pop references, together the works contemplate the frameworks that shape experience.
Through April 18
