Passion = Abundance contemplates the invisible time and space between what happens offstage versus what happens onstage.

The epic poem The Odyssey by Homer is a story about a long journey home. Bridget Sue Lambert and Jessica van Brakle interpret this journey like Sirens, using mysterious narratives to lure the viewer into an ambiguous and strange environment.
Utilizing obsessively staged photographic sets and highly detailed, multi-layered collage, the works fragment scenarios derived from history, movies, fantasy and natural environments. Through the exacting placement of objects that hold secret significance to each series, the artists create complex new and highly personal worlds.
—Jayme McLellan Gallery Director and Curator

Photographs of a rusted modernist dollhouse, a life size totem sculpture of a miniature seal ornament and an interactive, magnetic wall installation.
Seal The Deal, Oct 28 – Dec 2, 2017, Civilian Art Projects
These large-scale photographs of dollhouses reveal domestic scenes that are at once tantalizing and unsettling. Lambert takes the dollhouse, a diminutive and nostalgic plaything, and enlarges and subverts its typical use. The gallery transformed into a room-sized construction and the audience enters into the ambiguous residue of past private moments
Every Now and Then, the Arlington Arts Center on view April 18 to Jun2 28, 2015.
