PHILADELPHIA- Tiger Strikes Asteroid is pleased to announce the opening of its July exhibition, Proof of My Unknowing Eyes, featuring the works of Susan Bricker and Amy Beecher.

The show’s essayist, Jeffrey Scott Mathews, notes:
“In the work of Amy Beecher and Susan Bricker, we are presented with visual criteria establishing both presence and absence in the material and in the immaterial. In both of the artists’ work, there is a manipulation of paint, yet there exists an elusive and supernatural component to the work that suggests a tenuous relationship with the traditional or fundamentalist modes of abstraction and representation.”
