In Escaramuza, the Poetics of Home, artist Constance Jaeggi collaborates with award-winning Los Angeles poet Angelina Sáenz and Texas Poet Laureate Ire’ne Lara Silva to offer a rare view into the world of escaramuza charra and the women behind the pageantry and costumes. This project reveals how escaramuzas claim space within the male-dominated world of charrería. Pairing intimate photographs of the escaramuzas with poetry and interviews, the exhibition provides a sensory feast for viewers that is lyrical and revealing.

First Thursday Opening: Jan 8, 5 - 8 PM
In-Person Artist Talk: Sat, Jan 10, 3:30 PM
Lauren Grabelle’s Deer Diary explores where fine art, documentary practice, and wildlife photography meet in the Montana landscape. She uses a trail camera as a portal for spiritual self-portraiture, letting deer become collaborators through their movements. Positioned along game trails and bent fence lines, the camera captures these animals as they navigate their terrain, echoing narratives found in art, mythology, religion, and literature since Paleolithic times.
