Jonathan Hopson presents "Going through the motion,"a two-person exhibition from gallery artists Liz Rodda and Steven Evans. Rodda will present two short video works and an installation and Evans will fill the back gallery with his large scale neon sculpture directly from his installation for the New York City Aids Memorial, "Songs for a Memorial,"2022.

Rodda and Evans utilize conceptual frameworks that tie themselves to the immediacy of the present moment. The beckoning neon sign and the long slow drawl of a vulnerable monologue stop us instantly: we are captured in the moment of their making. In that rare space that these two artists conjure up we take up a seance with the mysticism of that glowing spiral: we approach new truths through mystic formulations.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until May 28.
