The title refers to art that is unframed and unmated. Many pieces are for sale at reduced prices as a way to say thank you back to our collectors .

It also makes room in the studio for new work. I have pulled older pieces that I have never framed, but hold on to because I like them. They are too good to discard or paint over and yet never seem to find a spot in a show that earns them a frame. It's impossible to frame everything! They are often out of the main image areas I work in or represent explorations into new ideas or methods. Both things that make for interesting work but don't necessarily match up with enough other pieces tome a coherent show.

Art Presence Gallery and Art Center is open each Friday, Saturday and Sunday 12 - 5. Masks are required. My work can also be seen on line on my website www.katycauker.com, on FB or Instagram and at KC Studio Gallery, 328 S. Central Ave. #109, Medford, OR 07530
