ALTAR is a new solo exhibition by Destiny Grimm combining figuration and abstraction, oil painting, ceramic sculpture, and found objects. This body of work explores ideas of resilience, submission, pace, value, America, and the African diaspora through the spiritual practice of arranging altars. The exhibition will be on view January 30th to March 7th, 2021 with virtual programming accompanying the virtual opening reception on Saturday, January 30th.
