Here is a write up in the Willamette Week for this month’s show at the Worksound gallery. I hope everyone gets a chance to check it out before it closes!

Worksound In the thought-provoking group show Face Value, Josh Arseneau disarmingly cloaks the faces of his portrait subjects in ski masks. Evoking Michelangelo’s The Last Judgment, Doug Burns paints hellscapes teeming with writhing figures. Anne Greenwood’s quiltlike mixed-media panels critique domesticity, while Vanessa Calvert’s pillow-filled installation weighs in on the vapidity of social networking websites. The collages in Aaron Eliah Terry’s Fear series are witty and well-composed, while Rives Granade’s drawings crackle with erotic charge. 820 SE Alder St., Closes Aug. 24.
