At the Edge, by Theresa Wells Stifel

York & Main, a Gloucester Main Street staple, proudly presents an art exhibition in partnership with the Gloucester Arts Festival ready to inspire and engage. The "Traces of Transformation" show invites you to consider the artists' interpretation of the ways in which time, natural forces, and human actions transform materials and leave lasting impressions on the landscape and our understanding of place. 

The exhibition's work explores the tangible and intangible remnants of change, from the physical alterations of materials to the conceptual shifts in perception and memory. 

The artworks consider how materials transform over time, how human actions leave traces, and how memories and experiences shape our understanding of place, particularly in relation to the unique environment of Gloucester, VA, and the surrounding Tidewater region.
