Krista Svalbonas has recently opened an exquisite and historic exhibition at the Marshall Gallery in Santa Monica, CA that will run through February 24th, 2024. Experiencing the work in person is critical to appreciating these historically rich and tactile works. As artists, our best work comes from the stew of our lives and our personal histories. Svalbonas, in researching her parents' journey through displacement and immigration, has created unique and powerful bodies of work that are  fragile and lace-like expressions of time, place, and memory.
