Kalberg’s recent work depicts figures in seemingly ambiguous interactions ⁠— swimming or sinking, embracing or at odds, lost in contemplation or hallucinating, conveying psychological states that reveal the tensions and uncertainty of contemporary life. Sink or Swim is on view at Monte Clark, May 14 – June 11, 2022.

Space is limited, please RSVP as the event is sure to fill up quickly.
