“These are collections of things: materials with their own history, materials with a history I’ve invested in them.” – Tim Harney
There was a record turnout at the opening reception, as students, faculty and community supporters from around the North Shore filled the Gallery spaces to hear Harney speak about the work. Harney suggests that the show is a series of reflections—real, imagined and dreamed—on the life and influence of his family and, in particular, his parents. “I chose the title… an expression of my love, recollection and testimony to their inspiration—but another ‘reading’, and, admittedly, the one I’ve been preoccupied with for the past few years, is the realization that I indeed have my mother’s arthritic hands and my father’s heart condition,” said Harney.
