Nearing Each Other invites us to reimagine our own complex connections to place as a site of unfolding relationships. In this exhibition, place may be an environment, a material experience, or a memory to suggest notions of belonging and transformation. Through material explorations, six Pittsburgh-based artists engage with personal narratives to reveal family histories, childhood memories, and expressions of the landscape and architecture that traverse past and present moments. Representing a range of media, including painting, drawing, photography, textile, and found objects, the exhibition offers a look into the diverse art practices of artists living in Pittsburgh.
