Tonight (9/11/26)  is the closing reception for Shadow Work, a group exhibition at Chris White gallery in downtown Wilmington. Curated by Jen Hintz Eggers and Rebecca Howell, nine local artists present work exploring what can be discovered through “shadow work“.

From the gallery:

Shadow Work invites impolite conversations. By shining a light on the hidden aspects of ourselves and our society, each artist examines their experience through honest dialog around parts rarely seen or discussed. From impeccably constructed portraits and florals to expressive large scale paintings and found object sculptures, these works offer a space for vulnerability by opening up the door to community.

Other artists included in the exhibition but not pictured: Regina Katz, Jane Quarterone, Rebecca Howell, and Samara Weaver.

Tonight is also Art Loop Wilmington, a monthly event where galleries and cultural spaces stay open late.

For An American Son, Oscar Eduardo de Paz‘s solo exhibition at Chris White Gallery in Wilmington, he has created a series of works that capture moments from his life growing up as an American born to immigrant parents. The addition of collaged poems and objects adds textures to the paintings that draw the viewer in, while his focus on hands emphasizes the commonalities in his experiences.

From the gallery-

An American Son presents a powerful new body of work by Oscar Eduardo de Paz, tracing his journey from childhood poverty to fatherhood, community, and artistic emergence.

Through his Poetic Symbolic Representation (PSR) approach, de Paz layers figures, objects, archival fragments, and lived memory to reveal how American systems, poverty, policing, immigration, education, and care, shape a life. These paintings move between personal testimony and collective history, offering an intimate and compelling account of American experience through one son’s eyes.

The gallery is hosting a closing reception this Friday evening, 5/22/26, from 5-8pm.
