In the Out Door. Chris Domenick creates a contemporary Baroque from the humble stuff of ballpoint pen, carpet, contact paper and sawdust.

Strange palaces rise up of fine wood parquet and marble inlay, only to dissolve into a freeform, surreal dream. Domenick persistently drifts, immersed in the process of making, from the carefully patterned logic of his plans until his works take to the air. The show includes a sawdust landscape mural, an assortment of ballpoint drawings, a castle that is really a cat-scratching post, a city in a case and a dollhouse-like mansion, wherein a pair of chairs look at their own image in an artwork on the wall.
