Willamette Week pick - Jessica Loughlin's Expanse

"In Expanse, Australian phenom Jessica Loughlin continues her career-long fascination with the eternal horizon. While the show includes many of the stratified horizontal studies we have come to associate with her, it also incorporates a newer tactic and technique, as seen in works such as Awash 3. Its vaporous wisps, rising like fingers of fog from a river, speak less of strata, more of ascent; less of stasis, more of fluidity. This piece and several others light up the room with a near-blinding bluish white, lending visual drama to an exhibition already aglow with allegory." - Richard Speer
