Night Swim is a solo exhibition that features new work by Katie Pumphrey, including large scale paintings, and for the first time ever, sculptures. This new body of work dives head first into her experiences as an open water swimmer. With playful imagery, vibrating color, and a bit of silliness, this body of work explores the tension and connection between the constant chaos around us, the roller coaster we ride between our ears, and the scramble to find calm at the surface of it all.

Katie Pumphrey is an American contemporary artist and ultra-marathon open water swimmer. Pumphrey has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art. Major swims include the English Channel (2015), around the island of Manhattan (2017), and the Catalina Channel (2018). Those three swims make up the Triple Crown of open water swimming, making Katie the 194th person (73rd woman) in the world to achieve that goal.

Please join us on Sunday November 7 from 2 PM – 5 PM for the opening reception and on Saturday December 4th from 1 PM – 3 PM for “Swim Stories” artist’s talk
