"Chasing Magic" brings together the unique voices of Shane Cooper, Lydia Riegle, and Jean Smith, each uncovering magic in their distinct artistic processes. Cooper's work involves meticulously excavating antique books with a scalpel, yielding breathtaking results. Riegle crafts vibrant, graphic designs using archival paper, oil-based ink, and a printing press, creating spontaneous and colorful compositions. Smith focuses on the tactile realm of clay, where her skilled hands guide the material through a transformative journey of imagination and process, resulting in joyful installations of color, texture, and form.
