Event Description Hiding In Plain Site is both a retrospective and a debut-a rare window into the creative world of Joseph A. Henseler, a multidisciplinary artist unveiling more than 30 years of unseen work. This expansive solo exhibition traces his lifelong journey across diverse media, including sculpture, painting, stained glass, copper, weaving, photography, poetry, and site-specific installations. Working largely outside the spotlight, Henseler has developed a distinctive voice rooted in the belief that art can be made from anything and found everywhere. His pieces-created from reclaimed, found, and everyday materials-challenge conventional boundaries, inviting viewers to reconsider where and how art can exist. This exhibition features over 80 works, including original pieces and limited-edition prints. None of them were commissioned or computer-generated. Instead, they form a deeply personal archive-an exploration of materials, memory, and meaning.
