3 Artists: Dreams, Fantasies and Humor



Curator’s Statement



Lisa Cates:

Ms. Cates's images struck me with their outright visual humor. Looking at

Ms. Catees’s work, I became aware that there is an intimacy within the

humor. Visions of the funny moments from a personal life. A bit like a

survival technique to cope with life’s real world problems. Always keeping

an eye towards the comic side of life. I’m laughing.



Alexis Martino:

Ms. Martino is an image maker and an educator. The images bring to

mind a flowing dream that leaves me longing to be touched by the

creation. The look is like a written play directed by Ms. Martino, where

the narrative is my own. I keep coming back to look and find my narrative.

keeps changing. Stunning.



Leslie Tabony:

Ms. Tabony’s images are a dreamscape of the senses. An uninhibited

sensual fantasy of possibilities. Reminiscent of all of the times we wake up

and almost remember our unconscious state. Never sure of what the

reality is except that the real is right in front of us. Beautiful.
