Imago is an exhibition by Isabel Rower presenting paintings, vessels, seating, and tables that draw from historical design and architectural references. Inspired by the Garden Room of the Villa of Livia, the installation pairs paintings on antique linens with functional sculptural objects that reference trompe l’oeil traditions and ancient materials. Across ceramics, paper pulp, and painted surfaces, the works examine imitation, transformation, and the boundaries between function and image.

Persistence of Vision is The Pit's second solo exhibition by LA-based artist Jennifer King, featuring twelve new ceramic works experimenting with non-traditional glazing, painting, and high-fire techniques. Drawing from the subconscious, King explores the vase as a historically significant object of storytelling, memory, and nostalgia, embellished with dangling ceramic flowers and organic forms conveying opulence and latent motion. A central work, Splintering the Sun, pushes the vessel into a deconstructed state, introducing figurative tension between ruin and transformation.
