Opening of "The Stories We Tell" by BLXCK RABBIT
San Antonio artist BLXCK RABBIT’s (a pseudonym for Celeste Lindsey) work can best be characterized by narrative, symbolism, metaphor, and abstraction created to describe the relationship between body, soul, and spirit. In her debut curation, “The Stories We Tell,” BLXCK RABBIT creates alongside artists Jade Lindsey and Faith Newman explore themes of nature, beauty, and vulnerability. Using printing, drawing, and fiber, the artists bring together their personal narratives to tell a new story.
Stories are the collections of moments no longer able to be contained, and storytellers are the vessels from which they overflow. They are released and given, learned and created; they are passed from one storyteller to another. Like a fountain, these moments are poured out again and again until they take on the more enduring forms of symbology, belief, and faith.
