GRO Artist Jenny-Lynn Hall exhibits (i’m)permanence, an exhibition of subtle and evocative drawings. The title refers to how we—and all things—exist in time, and have a set duration. The work is created with impermanent mediums that will erode and change over time: soluble pencil, chalk, and charcoal. Visible in each piece is an underlying grid, a foundation of Sacred Geometry, like a map of duration and location, interconnected and infinite.
Hall writes, “Interconnection is ever present, and these pieces focus on duration. Everything from a shadow produced by a ray of light, a human life, even the stars themselves exist in time. All finite things are born and then die. Phenomena have lives only in connection to the duration and location of their existence. Yet we are connected to the infinite. To focus on individual frames of our lives—Maya or illusion in Buddhist philosophy—is suffering. As I age, I am faced with the reality that people and places I love also are aging and changing. Sadness, and thus suffering, often results. Yet this is a basic condition of life. To try to perceive unimaginable oneness is truth. It makes us kinder.”
