Taking an expansive approach to feel, feeling, and felt, Glassell Gallery is seeking artists whose work addresses emotional states and embodiment—to the shifts felt when we tune into our senses. We seek work that embraces the sensuous—touch, temperature, vibration, aura—and connects the haptic, emotional, and somatic.
