Mr. Rea's works are evocative and rational responses to history.
Constructed from untreated wood and memory, they invoke one simple
axiomatic truth, Fictions or established hearsay allow for flawed
interpretations that lead to flawed results. Michael Rea creates
something short of that outcome, the idea of an object that remains
a dream. His temporal works are humane in scale acquiring their
patinas naturally, through interaction, by touch. Offering
simultaneity, they are a service to what could be and what never
will.

We are open to the public on Saturdays from noon until 6pm or by appointment
