"Basket Books & Art is pleased to present Watery, Domestic, a group show featuring seven artists presently working in Central Texas and its Gulf Coast region. Watery, Domestic is on view December 14, 2024 to February 2, 2025 and we invite you to join us on Saturday, December 14th from 4-6pm for an opening reception. At 5pm Seneca Garcia will perform a short set of songs.
The title, borrowed from a 90’s era indie rock album whose first track is called “Texas Never Whispers,” is re-deployed to describe the all-pervasive atmospheric condition of Houston: ever humid, damp even when dry, sprawling mass amidst permanent gurgling din. Presenting differing individual concerns within the various practices of the artists here gathered, the shared and inescapable environmental state serves as a rivulet trickling through the work."
