liminal: lou hicks & teresa waterman closing reception with the artists Saturday April 4, 2-4pm at mapspace Hicks and Waterman employ an intuitive and introspective vision to explore a threshold of visual perception. They record the peripheral, interstitial spaces, glimpses caught at a glance, more sensation than fully there. Their abstract works on paper are spare and minimal yet pulse with sensuality, capturing an ephemeral materiality in the subtleties of our everyday environments. more info: MAPSpace:  located  at 6 North Pearl Street, 4th floor, 1 block from  Metro-North   train Port Chester station, Stamford Local on New Haven Line. 24 driving miles from Manhattan.  M etered street &  municipal  parking  available.   Please note- no public parking in the building  lot-tenants only.  C ontact   us for more info.  www.mirandaartsprojectspace. com
