Kathryn Goshorn at Storage

The egg tempera paintings by Kathryn Goshorn at Storage were modeled after the artist’s memories of her estranged father. Done in light gray hues, these paintings depict the lighting and subsequent disposal of cigars her dad smoked. They’re precious without being overly sentimental. Nearby them is a small photograph by Barbara Nitke, titled Bathroom Kiss, which captures two figures in lingerie and bondage equipment as they prepare to lock lips, and an Adam Lupton painting that represents a person in bed, staring at a phone. For that latter work, cut pieces of canvas and paint transferred from other works are cobbled together, causing the work to appear layered and dense.
