Luke directly expresses his silent stories of love, longing and solitude. “There is no end to this exploration of color, light, shape and texture. I create a space, which the viewer may want to enter, and once there, forget the painting and become lost in the feelings which the art has been evoked.”

Artists in Threshold convey a sense of the mystery of the act of transitioning, of changing from one reality (known state) to another. We may be stepping into a more beautiful place, or one that offers depth and power we never could have anticipated. It may be a darker state. No matter, the threshold invites us to walk through. All artists selected for this show are on the threshold of something.
