About the Artists

Paul Wear: A Midwest native, Wear’s abstract paintings pulse with Chicago’s architectural energy. Known for his vibrant use of color against dark, textured surfaces, his work emerges through a unique technique of layering and intricate mark-making, channeling the city’s dynamism into each canvas.

Andrea Jablonski: Drawing from her Polish heritage and materials from her commercial work, Jablonski’s sculptures blend tradition and industrial remnants. Her RYA knot-tying technique brings heritage into modern art, using braiding and soft structures to create thought-provoking works that engage with identity, sustainability, and innovation.
