In her earlier work, Martha Posner’s signature garments are empty vessels filled with associations. In the present series from 2011 to 2016, the previously omitted figures have taken form. In Mercy, an installation at the Grossman Gallery, their life-sized, child-like bodies are caught in a moment of transformation. The implied movements and life forms suggest pagan mythology yet leave themselves open to other stories.
Summer gallery hours: Tues-Sat 11 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
