November 2023 LAAA Exhibitions
Kerrie Smith’s Portals and Pathways is a powerful multi-sensory exhibition. The installation features flowing banners printed with Smith’s vivid abstract paintings inspired by daily walks along Santa Barbara’s More Mesa. Interspersed are sheer banners featuring personal poetry hand-stamped with wooden blocks carved by Smith. Circular “portals” hang from floor to ceiling with Smith’s photography of local flora and fauna, as well as sights on the trails that surround More Mesa. Ambient sounds of crashing waves, animal life, and encounters recorded by Smith.
Artwork by Kerrie Smith
