Held Line Project invites you to the reception for
Works by Natasha Das, Steven Crawford and Gorazd Poposki
Saturday, May 16th from 6 to 9 pm

Natasha Das works in Eri silk and thread. The exhibition includes works from the ongoing BRICKS series — modular units of densely stitched silk, built incrementally by hand. Each work is discrete. Installed in proximity, the units establish spatial and chromatic relations across the wall. Das is represented by Marc Straus, New York.

Steven Crawford works in large-format photography. The Fragility of Hope series presents botanical specimens photographed through ice. The ice introduces optical distortion — compressing, fragmenting, and obscuring form. Working from a tradition of botanical illustration, Crawford deploys precision as a means of examining what perception cannot fully hold. Transience and irresolution are its primary conditions.

Gorazd Poposki works in charcoal on linen. Born in Macedonia and based in New York, Poposki produces drawings through direct, unmediated mark-making. Forms emerge rapidly — accumulating, dispersing, and losing definition within a single sustained movement. The relationship between intention and material resistance is left visible. The works do not resolve.

The exhibition continues on the 8th floor, where the artists’ studios are located. Guests are invited to move through the building — from the work to where the work is made. Enjoy some wine and cheese. Come and see what is held in this creative space.
