Christopher Schneberger: The Wanderers
December 2nd – 26th

Opening Reception: December 4th | 5 – 7 PM
Artist Talk: December 9th | 7 PM

“This new series of semi-narrative tableaus imagines a band of young explorers traversing the land. These young women portray both the fantasy of those childhood expeditions and serve to illustrate the idea of getting lost and finding one’s way. This is not a specific story being told with a point-by-point plot, but a series of scenarios with repeating characters and tropes. The land they roam is a non-specific midwestern farmscape, both wild and cultivated, seen in a half-light of evening or gathering storms. The relationships between these wanderers shifts with the landscape, and is often deliberately ambiguous. I intend to depict them just on the edge of reality, verging slightly into the cinematic, in hopes the viewer will indulge in the same idealistic vision and suspend disbelief.” —Christopher Schneberger
