“Strength meets fragility, vulnerability meets hope, and grief meets healing: Sacred Contracts is a
snapshot of contemporary art making in the Flathead Valley. The abstract and conceptual works in the
exhibition deconstruct objects, language, and memory, while weaving together messages of hope,
grief, love, bearing witness, and matters of conscience. The artists showcase a diverse range of
media: paint, collage, fiber, natural and found materials, sculpture, photography, and poetry, and the
works vary in scale from hand-held to a full wall installation. These very diverse pieces come together
to create a landscape of healing.”
