The Unknown Thing that Frees You by Lela Pierce

Opening Reception Friday, September 20, 2024, 6-9 PM. 

The exhibition runs from September 26 – October 27, 2024.

 

In The Unknown Thing that Frees You, Lela Pierce seeks to expand the often condensed and unsettling spaces, states, and sites of "in-betweenness." Pierce extends the boundaries of what aims to contain us. Located sonically in the color black, sinking deep in the earth and reaching far out into outer space, this work, encompassing various 2D and 3D forms, teeters between spaces of perceived comfort and discomfort, grief, longing, darkness and light—stretching and reaching towards cyclical spaces of joy, and becoming.

Soo Visual Arts Center has exhibited over 2500 under-represented artists since opening our doors in 2001. As a leader in discovering new talent and with a strong focus on emerging artists from the state of Minnesota, SooVAC offers year-round exhibition and community programming.

 

Founded by visual artist Suzy Greenberg in 2001, our non-profit 501 (c)3 art space is based on the founder’s relationship with art—one that views the artistic as vital to personal and community health and vision.
