Check out Jesse Well’s exhibit “Reckonings,” opening this Friday, May 4th, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm at the New Dominion Bookshop.Jesse Wells’ most recent series is an assemblage of tokens pointing to peripheral moments and the significance we attribute to incidental human actions over time. In applying a frontier mentality to everyday life, viewing the explored as unexplored, it appears that what hovers in the distance can either be a danger or a discovery. Maybe it is both.This work includes letterpress, drawings, crochet and thread on canvas.
