Jori Ketten curates Inside Voices from 7/30 - 8/4. Set down what you carry. Lower your voice, raise your attention. Join these artists, selected for their practice as world-makers, as they take you on sensory excursions inside their environments. Gentle and sure, grounded and experimental, curious and complicated – each day will bring new experiences of gravity and wonder. — Jori Ketten
8/3: ListsLists lists in places betwixt improvisation and composition, with saxophone and cello listing and listing after, and for, in place, with lists both textural and organic, born of one warm, one room home resplendent of tiny plants in tiny pots, placed in place, amongst Lists listing. — David Barth Penn & Neil Jackson
