Somesthesia by Laura Bochet + Grand Reopening 155 Main Street

Centering around bodily reactions and memory, these paintings consider the relationship between connection and communication and how the feeling of closeness translates into memory. Flashes of eye contact and clouds of color swirl around you, distant faces appear and just as quickly, disappear. Here, you are both the observer and the observed, immersed in a silent conversation that recollects your own feelings of closeness, longing and nostalgia. This reception also celebrates the Grand Reopening of Distortion Society in its new location at 155 Main Street, Beacon (across from the street from the old location).
