"States of Longing" highlights artists that conceptually work with love, lust or desire. Love is an expansive emotion that transgresses boundaries, nationalities, gender and race and the central aim of "States of Longing" is to show love in its myriad of forms. Specific works deal with an owner's love for his dog Sparky, private moments of love and lust revealed, the need to be desired and be objectified to the human desire to have feelings of love for another.
On March 21 Karen Sorensen sets up her love research booth at the Chashama Gallery to collect love data. Participants who visit her booth for an intimate interview will receive a flower and may appear in her forthcoming book, titled "Love Research".
