SUMMARY:GALLERY: On Balancing | Art in Suspension
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Reception: Friday\, September 18th | 5pm - 7pm\n\nAt
  a moment when certainty often feels elusive\, mobiles remind us that inst
 ability is not necessarily disorder. They reveal beauty in adaptation\, re
 sponsiveness\, and change. Their slow choreography of movement encourages 
 close observation and patience\, offering a counterpoint to the speed and 
 distraction of contemporary life. In this way\, the mobile is not only a s
 ignificant artistic form but also a compelling lens through which to consi
 der the complexities of the present moment. Suspended between motion and s
 tillness\, they offer a visual language for uncertainty\, adaptation\, con
 nection\, and joy.\n\nThe exhibition brings together artists and audiences
  around works that ask us to slow down and notice what is happening betwee
 n things: the pull of gravity\, the movement of air\, the tension between 
 opposing forces\, and the surprising moments of harmony that emerge when n
 othing stays exactly where it is. Rather than offering certainty\, On Bala
 ncing embraces the conditions of change. Its works remind us that equilibr
 ium can be dynamic\, that fragility can be a form of strength\, and that j
 oy can be found in the continual work of finding our balance.\n\nThis exhi
 bition is itself a collaboration—and a balancing act—between Working L
 oose founder Em Gift and longtime collaborator Lisa Foti-Straus. Their cre
 ative dialogue began more than fifteen years ago at Gravel &amp\; Gold in 
 San Francisco and has continued through a shared appreciation for the mobi
 le as a playful\, dynamic\, and deeply expressive art form.\n\nArtists Inc
 lude: Lisa Foti-Straus\, John Gnorski\, Annie Costello Brown\, Dove Hornbu
 ckle\, Max Simon\, Christopher Baker\, and Eleanor Anderson\n\nOn view Sep
 tember 18 through November 7\, 2026\, the exhibition opens with a receptio
 n on Friday\, September 18\, from 5–7pm at Working Loose\, 49 Main Stree
 t\, Blue Hill\, Maine.
