“RITE” by Katherine Colona Hopkins at 440 Gallery
October 21 through November 28
Opening reception with the artist on Friday, October 22nd from 6-9pm.

The 440 Gallery is pleased to present “Rite”, the debut exhibition of Katharine Colona Hopkins. For the exhibition, Hopkins presents three large-scale works that encompass painting, wall- drawing, and animation.

The artist creates an inexplicit entrance into a subterranean space accompanied by a diagram that illustrates its interior, while an animated drawing abstracts these spaces and takes the viewer on a claustrophobic journey through dark passages. The weight of the imagery is in contradiction to the lightness of the materials Hopkins uses; graphite and charcoal are drawn or projected onto the walls, panels of delicate Japanese paper serve as the canvas for the large-scale ink and watercolor painting.
