ECHOES

March 14 - May 9, 2025

Spalding Nix Fine Art is pleased to present ECHOES, four solo shows by Caroline Bullock, Sachi Rome, Lizzy Storm and Blair Hobbs. An echo reflects and reverberates from a source. It repeats, but is only reminiscent of the original, not an exact copy. It is transient, changing and intangible. The Artists in this show have created distinct bodies of work exploring themes akin to an echo. Inspired by the 13th century poet Rumi, Caroline Bullock’s “This Place is a Dream” ruminates on the transient and illusory nature of the physical world, creating imagined landscapes using cyanotypes, plants from her garden, paint, and paper. Exploring the layered histories of the South, Sachi Rome’s “Liminal Space,” is a series of abstract works that imagine in-between spaces as sites of possibility, inviting viewers to meditate on the thresholds between the tangible and intangible. Referencing images etched and painted on stone from the Paleolithic Era, Lizzy Storm’s series of earth pigment works on paper titled “lithomancy,” reflects on the traces of human intervention in the environment and our place in the worlds of Nature. Blair Hobbs’ latest series of narrative mixed media collages, “Birthday Cake For Flannery,” is a celebration of the life and writings of the renowned Georgia author, Flannery O’Connor, as well as a reckoning with Flannery’s complicated characters and Blair’s own journey.

Opening Receptions: Friday, March 14, 6 - 8 p.m. and Saturday, March 15, 12 - 4 p.m.
