Forum 89

Nearing Each Other features new and existing work by six Pittsburgh-based artists who return to imagery and resonant materials that embody past and present moments. Through the exploration of family ephemera, childhood memories, and repeated interpretations of place, each body of work is situated within the artists’ own sense of time. While multiple temporalities come together, the exhibition considers how these artists approach familiar spaces and forms, proposing themes of belonging, domesticity, and transformation. Representing a range of media, including painting, drawing, photography, textile, and found objects, the exhibition offers a look into the diverse art practices of artists living in Pittsburgh.
