Sharon Butler leads an open survey of her many times of thinking of giving up art. She sits at the helm of her work and gave us Two Coats of Paint. I have followed her since her days showing at Pocket Utopia, and even had a (Nashville!) studio visit with her in 2012. I love her stages (1-4) of an artists’s work and life, and her openness in talking about how hard it is to remain “non-suffering” in her practice. She’s got projects coming up at 195 Henry St, NYC, Clear Sky (Insomnia Project), 68 Prince St Gallery (Kingston).
