There’s just one more day to see Fight or Flight, a two person exhibition by Creative Alliance residents Alessandra Torres and Katie Pumphrey. The exhibit of Pumphrey’s muscular paintings and Torres’s sensual sculptures has been up since February 8 in the Creative Alliance’s Main Gallery and the show ends on March 22, 2014.

Get over there tomorrow! As always, work is better experienced in person. Fight or Flight showcases all new artwork by Alessandra Torres and Katie Pumphrey created over the course of their respective three-year residencies at the Creative Alliance. The exhibition explores themes of confrontation, reflex, competition, territory, instinct, interaction, and personal space. See more here.
