EXHIBITION: Scratch Drawings

Candela Gallery is excited to mount its first solo show by Washington, DC-based artist, Caitlin Teal Price. Through photography and deliberate, delicate mark-making, Price carves gestural patterns and shapes into the surface of her prints. Built on photographs of sunlight, seeping through the windows of her home, these Scratch Drawings are an exploration of the ritual and routine found in the undercurrents of Price's daily life.

Candela Gallery is thrilled to present High Water, a debut solo exhibition by Richmond, Virginia based photographer, Emily White. In response to our modern world, inundated by digital diversions and perpetual tail-chasing, Emily White has staked out essential and reverent landscapes.

ARTIST BREAKDOWN P.VI: Photography is Dead...

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be highlighting works currently on display here at the gallery. Follow along here and on social media for some background on each maker and their process.

What was their current reality? What were their thoughts and feelings about the future?
