QUIET PRECISION

CRAIG CARLISLE & KIRBY FREDENDALL

OPENING: FRIDAY, SEPT. 5, 5PM - 8PM

ON VIEW: SEPT. 6 - 28

In Quiet Precision, artists Craig Carlisle and Kirby Fredendall invite us into worlds shaped by contemplation and exacting detail. 

Carlisle, well known for his “Big Head” portraits, paints meditative studies of inner life. The paintings in this body of work radiate a stillness that commands attention and raises questions about what it means to be human.

Fredendall turns her meticulous eye and craft toward the natural world. Her paintings on acid-washed tin balance structure with atmosphere, capturing the nuanced interplay of light, color and form. Whether evoking landscapes, interiors or moments of transition, her brushwork is both precise and lyrical, revealing the beauty in restraint and the vitality of color. 

Together, Carlisle and Fredendall reveal how precision can take many shapes, whether through the distilled simplicity of a human form or the layered depth of a landscape. Side by side, their works speak in harmony, offering viewers a quiet but powerful invitation to slow down, look closely and discover richness in stillness.
