Artist Talk: Tethered

Join the artists of Tethered—Johannah Herr, Steph Zimmerman, CJ Matherne, and Eric Ehrnschwender—for an intimate conversation about connection, influence, and artistic lineage. Moderated by curator, Tara Foley. The artists will discuss the chain-invitation process behind the exhibition, how their relationships shaped the work on view, and the role of dialogue, mentorship, and tension in sustaining creative communities. The talk offers a deeper look into how ideas move between artists—and how those tethers shape both individual practice and collective meaning.
