Corwin Levi

December 4, 2026 - January 31, 2027 | Opening Reception / Meet the Artist: Friday, December 4 / 5 - 8pm

Corwin Levi delivers a multimedia exploration of life’s unpredictable paths. Drawing from vintage board games, Levi reconfigures familiar game pieces into collaged analogies for modern life, creating interactive installations where visitors can play, rearrange, and build their own paths. His work combines reflection, play, and participatory engagement, highlighting how life’s rules, directions, and outcomes are never fixed—yet the act of participation is always meaningful.

Together alongside the exhibits of Kristy Cavaretta and Alicia Ethridge, and Forrest Elliott and Rebecca Klementovich, the Gallery will be a rich, interactive space for reflection, play, and imaginative exploration, where visitors can navigate personal and collective experiences through art. From the soaring birds of memory to collaborative murals, from life paths reimagined through games to color as a language of emotion and connection, we'll celebrate human experience, creativity, and the power of participation.

Corwin Levi collects vintage games, digitizes them, then dissects and reassembles them into new, impossible configurations composed of elements taken from hundreds of 19th and 20th century game boards. The sources range from classic favorites like Candy Land and Sorry to more obscure gems like the Happy Marriage Game and the Self-Concept Game.

Learning the rules to these games as a child, the idea was that if a player followed the simple-enough rules, they (or anyone!) had an equal chance of owning a home, saving the prince or princess, and “winning.”

In remixing the games, the artist attempts to explode that idea and create more true-to-life paths. We don't all begin on the same tile. The start and finish, the rules, and even the direction are unclear, but we all keep playing anyway.
