Opening: Lee Price: Cake

April 25, 5:00 pm7:00 pm MDT

On view: April 25–May 24, 2025
Opening reception: April 25, 5:00–7:00pm

Lee Price masterfully transforms an everyday indulgence into a poignant meditation on time, memory, and the emotional complexities that accompany celebration. With her signature photorealistic style, Price presents exquisitely detailed paintings of cakes—decadent, colorful, and visually inviting—only to reveal a deeper undercurrent of nostalgia and melancholy. Each scene, rich with vibrant hues and intricate patterns, captures a moment just after the gathering has ended, the remnants of an event lingering like echoes of the past. Through these compositions, Price invites viewers to consider the transient nature of joy, the rituals we build around food, and the quiet spaces left behind when the party is over. Cake is a feast for the eyes but, more profoundly, an exploration of the fleeting nature of time and the personal histories we attach to the simplest of confections.
