Event Description Bread & Salt is proud to present Noncompliant, a solo exhibition by Tatiana Ortiz-Rubio. This exhibition marks a significant milestone in the artist’s relationship with the Bread & Salt Gallery. Ortiz-Rubio was a 2018 Bread & Salt IMPACT Artist-in-Residence, and Noncompliant will be the first time the gallery presents her work in a solo exhibition. Noncompliant explores the social construct of time and its incompatibility with the lived realities of human bodies, disability, and illness—also known as Crip Time. Deeply autobiographical, the works act as witness to specific moments in which time has been questioned, broken, lost, and forcefully redefined in order to allow for the crip experience to exist within constructed social systems. This series of work stands as an intimate investigation into the ways we assign value to human life and lived time.

Opening Days Saturday March 14th 4-8pm
Event Description Please join us next Saturday March 14th 5-8pm for the for opening of our new exhibition "East Meets West",  a photography exhibition featuring the work of Francesca Hummler, Allen Liu, Matthew Shelly, Jason Sullivan and L. A. Vogel. East Meets West stages a conversation where “East” and “West” function less as fixed geographies than as intersecting vocabularies of aesthetics, memory, and meaning. Across works that juxtapose Eastern philosophy with Western expression, the exhibition treats photography as a living language — a space where cultural boundaries blur, merge, and generate new forms of visual understanding. This is a deliberate experiment in Dialogue · Fusion · Rebirth: artists invite us to reframe perception rather than confirm familiar binaries.
