Gallery Imperato is pleased to announce Urban Blight, a solo exhibition of new works by Alyssa Dennis. Through a series of mixed media drawings, Dennis attempts to “track the development of urban living systems.” Her work is a collection of ideas, information and experiments that study the human relationship to the built environment.
