Gallery Hours: Indulgence

Indulgence is often framed as excess. It may appear as decadence, addiction, luxury, intimacy, guilt, celebration, or defiance. Indulgence can also be seen as a well-earned reward, an enjoyable escape, or form of self-care. What is indulgence to you? Is it an escape, a reward, a ritual, or quiet self-destruction? Where does nourishment end and excess begin? Does indulgence liberate the body or entrap it?
The artists featured in this exhibition have each created works that explore the many dimensions of indulgence through their respective mediums. From moments of excess and pleasure to acts of nurturing, desire, comfort, and celebration, these works invite viewers to consider indulgence in all its facets.
“Indulgence” invites the audience to explore what it means to let oneself enjoy without restraint. Through the lens of over 40 talented artists, we can explore what it feels like to give in.
