Opening Night | August 7, 5-7:30pm
Artist Talk | August 15, 4-5pm
Sally King Benedict is a contemporary painter known for her expressive figurative works, bold color fields, and layered mark-making that blends abstraction with recognizable human forms. Her exhibition, Frequency of Seeing, features a new body of work exploring perception as a kind of frequency or emotional sensitivity to light, color, pattern, and repetition. Inspired by observing her daughter’s heightened way of noticing the world, the work reflects how certain details can hold attention with unusual intensity.
Silver and gold leaf are embedded throughout her paintings as moments of activation, allowing surfaces to shift and respond to changing light and movement. Elements emerge, disappear, and reappear depending on perspective—echoing the experience of something suddenly catching the eye and becoming impossible to ignore. Through rhythm, reflection, and layered abstraction, Frequency of Seeing invites viewers into a more attentive and sensory-rich way of looking.
