Rana Young: The Rug’s Topography
January 11 – February 9

Opening Reception & Book Launch: January 11 | 6 – 9 PM | RSVP

“This series began with me photographing my intimate partner of six years. Simultaneously, we were facing an internal conflict: how we identified as individuals differed from the roles we occupied in our partnership. As we began to grow apart romantically, our anxieties rose in response to the distance widening between us. Collaborating visually to express our reflections served as a catalyst for the reconciling of our emotional intimacy in the midst of separation. It is through the juxtaposition of gaze and gesture that we create blended self-portraits, expressing our emotions in relation to who we were and who we’ll become.” – Rana Young
