SF, CA 94103
doors at 8:30pm
music at 9:00 pm
$5 to $10 suggested donation

Zoe Keating: looped cello
Yvette Molina: paintings
Jeff Rusch: projectionist

Yvette Molina's meticulously rendered oil paintings are both a celebration of nature and an invitation to consider its tenuous existence. Inspired by traditional Chinese landscape painting, Molina's work comes from detailed observations and recordings of plants, vistas and sky experienced in her own backyard in Oakland, California. The works are painted on aluminum panels which reflect light through twenty to thirty layers of paint, creating a deep luminosity. Molina's restrained, slate-like palette holds the work in a meditative, abstract domain where beauty is company to reflection on loss and possibility, regret and hope

Jeff Rusch has converted 48 of Yvette's paintings to digital form and will project them on multiple screens while Zoe performs a live soundtrack, creating an immersive environment of sight and sound.
