This month, five new exhibitions are opening at Lyndon House Arts Center. The first is “Carving Out Liminal Pathways Toward Fragmentation” by Sebastian Garcia Huidobro and Rachel Lea Seburn. Huidobro’s abstract sculptural paintings made of foam and fabric mimic the forms of microorganisms, while Seburn’s brutalist architecture-inspired sculptures mirror the process of building one’s dwelling using available materials. “Seams to Be: New Approaches to Textile Techniques” is a traveling exhibition featuring 13 Georgia artists who use needle and thread in a variety of ways, curated by Didi Dunphy. “Interwoven Narratives: Caul and Response” by twin sisters Sachi Rome and Tokie Rome-Taylor explores the Southern folklore surrounding the caul and double consciousness through a combination of photographic realism and abstract expressionism. Artist Katie Kameen collected and recontextualized secondhand plastic for her works in “Plastic Tense.” Finally, “Wonder” by Susan Perry is a series of small-scale sculptures made from handmade paper and bamboo with forms inspired by traditional Chinese kites. All exhibitions are open through Jan. 24, except “Wonder,” which closes Dec. 6.
