ENCAPSULATE: Storytelling Through Artwork by Branche Coverdale, Danielle SeeWalker, and Kay Seohyung Lee at Paradigm Gallery

Paradigm Gallery + Studio is pleased to present Encapsulate featuring new artwork by Branche Coverdale, Danielle SeeWalker, and Kay Seohyung Lee.

Since the first humans, visual literacy has been a key element in the passing down of personal and community histories. The art of storytelling continues to evolve as generational cohorts morph and adapt to change. Each generation’s standout storytellers take on the task of encompassing the narrative of a people in a way that lives beyond a tale’s initial telling. Through their distinct cross-sections of cultural archives, each artist speaks to ethereal energy and timeless ancestral knowledge that connects the past to the present day, turns visual anecdote into allegory.

Looking at each artist’s collection, the viewer can feel the importance, the urgency, and the lasting message of what they are creating. This contemporary artwork isn’t only for the now or for the history books. The reverberations of these visual stories are already continuing into the future, even gaining importance and relevance over time. ENCAPSULATE: Storytelling Through Artwork by Branche Coverdale, Danielle SeeWalker, and Kay Seohyung Lee will be on view on the second floor of the Paradigm Arts Building (12 N. 3rd St) starting December 6, 2024 through January 5, 2025, with a public reception on Friday, December 6th from 6:00-8:00 pm.
