As a thirtieth anniversary project, PLATFORM invited a roster of emerging and mid-career artists who have not yet exhibited with the gallery. Together, these exhibits offer insights and ruminations on failed love and thwarted dreams, as well as an overall malaise and melancholy stemming from our current climate steeped in popular culture.
