Press Release - "At and Past" Group Exhibition

pt. 2: Oakland is pleased to present “At and Past”, a group exhibition by John Gnorski, JP McNicholas, Olivia Nevins-Carbins, and Sylvia Fragoso. All of the pieces in the show have some kind of lattice work, whether literal in Olivia Nevins-Carbins gates or visual in the case of JP McNicholas’ trees and bushes. John Gnorski’s sculptures create a similar latticework effect and Sylvia Fragoso’s sculptures are lattice-like in construction as well as being highly religious which brings to mind the screen you'd find in a confessional.
