“Interior Architectures explores how two of Baltimore’s most dynamic contemporary artists construct deeply personal visual worlds. Through distinct but complementary approaches, Vinnie Hager and Emma Childs engage with emotional, psychological, and symbolic content to examine how we build and give form to our inner lives. The show proposes that translating our inner lives—our thoughts, emotions, memories, and psychological states—is fundamentally an act of construction, a building of a world from the inside out.

Vinnie Hager’s intricate compositions use dense, symbolic language to map the contours of his internal experience. In contrast, Emma Childs creates minimalist, architectural sculptural paintings that act as containers for emotion, memory, and perception.

There will also be a selection of works that Childs and Hager collaborated on to create, a brilliant convergence and literal translation of how artists can communicate across space and time through their works. By pairing Hager’s visual language with Childs’s sculptural clarity, Interior Architectures invites viewers to reflect on the ways we construct and inhabit our own internal worlds.”
