Commonweal is honored to present an exhibition of works by artist Jessica Dunne. “By painting what I see, I make discoveries,” the artist says. “By paying attention to the details that record shifts in light, structures, and moods, I want to impart the sense of being located and included in a way that leaves an afterimage in the mind’s eye.” Read more about the inspirations for Jessica Dunne’s “Subplots” exhibition on the Commonweal website.
