Born from the political maelstrom that has defined the last several years, Chuvarsky’s paintings seek to critique the continued divisiveness and disinformation of modern politics while examining the issues that define American culture, whether it be our insatiable appetite for consumerism or pop-culture rhetoric. By acknowledging and documenting the flaws, Chuvarsky hopes to shift focus to something uniquely American: optimism. “I’m inviting everyone to take a moment, to pause Cardi B and stop taking selfies, reflect on what you really want for the future - then go out there and actually do it.”

Reception: August 17, 6-9pm
