Curated by Laura Malone, Present Figures brings together five California painters who work within, and against, the tradition of portraiture. Centered on closeness, boundaries, and emotion, each artist uses the human body to explore identity and inner life, touching on selfhood, physical experience, and self-awareness. Together, their bold, poetic choices reveal the many ways one's own inner life can be seen, shown, and expressed by each of us.
