  4. I am drawn to work by artists who apply their unique perspective to illuminating the relationship between their existence and the world around them with a smart, sincere sensibility. I want to encourage your core artistic aspirations and professional development as independent artists with aesthetic concerns and practices completely of your own. Imagine the one artwork in your portfolio that can remain as testament to your entire belief system. This is where we begin. Jennifer Kahrs Curator
