GALLERY | $5 SUGGESTED DONATION | ALL AGES | COGNITIVE DISSONANCE presents a body of contemporary artwork made by visual artists from around the country. These paintings, photos, videos, and sculptures are united by a shared exploration of what it means to play a role, play pretend, or perform an identity. By ruminating on what it means to live vicariously through ideas, people, iconography, and memory, this body of work grapples with the multiplicity of being and the inherent contradictions of living amongst worlds that simultaneously exist in opposition and in harmony with one another.

COGNITIVE DISSONANCE is also the name of our artist collective. We are a group of interdisciplinary artists seeking to learn and grow together by curating arts events where we can showcase work, facilitate musical and artistic performances, and build community.

Participating Artists: Genesis Andrade, Fiona Baler, Nina Barnett, Nola Clancy, Dominick Cocozza, Esther L Cohen, Izzy Dean, Rhianna Gides, Meredith Rae Hamilton, Caroline Ju, Oliver Otake, Blue Reinhard, Kate Renshaw-Lewis, Zoey Solomon, Hannah Lupton Reinhard, and Christopher Warinofsky.
