"Cedric Harper’s work creates an immersive environment where artworks dangle from the ceiling, perch on low tables by the ground, and adorn the walls. The works aren’t physically large, but their presence demands attention. There’s no such thing as a casual walk around this gallery space. Visitors are pulled in by the magnetic force of each piece." — Celina Colby for the Bay State Banner.

On view through 4/15

A #Photograph of the #Boston #Skyline from a visit some years ago. I only had a few long weekends in Boston but it remains my favorite US city. Maybe the history? Maybe something else but I liked the small taste I got.
