Gallery Opening: "Today Is A Wonderful Day. I’ve Never Seen This One Before…"

In Alexis Hunter’s newest body of work, "Today Is A Wonderful Day. I’ve Never Seen This One Before…" we’re granted permission to enter a deeply personal, but not solitary, portal and arrive on a Friday morning at Swim Club. This marks Hunter’s inaugural presentation with Ivester Contemporary, comprising eleven new pieces: a video work, two site-specific installations, and various oil paintings on panel. References for this collection are from Hunter’s most admired natural resources across Central Texas, and rely on the symbolic and psychological impact of watering holes to enchant and remind viewers of the ways it has shaped/held humanity.
