Present Tense: Past Participle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the 68 Prince Street Gallery in Kingston, New York, USA
18 October-16 November 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Artist Douglas Navarra brings together dual practices of drawing and ceramics, each rooted in history yet charged with the immediacy of the present. Navarra\u2019s work unfolds across two intertwined platforms: drawing on found papers, many more than a century old, and the making of vessels in clay. Both practices are acts of mark-making that respond to surfaces already imbued with history. In his drawings, aged documents\u2014creased, stamped, stained, and written upon\u2014become palimpsests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Onto these fragile grounds, Navarra layers his own gestures, engaging in a dialogue between anonymous historical traces and contemporary presence. Each page becomes a meditation on how we encounter our collective past, and how choices to erase, amplify, or transform shape what we bring into the present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
