    ,

    Andrew Durham Gallery presents Vestiges of Existence, an exhibition by Jill Bedgood on view June 6 through August 1, 2026. Through sculptures and symbolic objects, Bedgood explores memory, lineage, and the emotional significance carried by everyday possessions. Worn items, handwritten notes, and natural anomalies become markers of human presence, revealing how personal and collective histories remain embedded in objects and landscapes. The exhibition considers the earth as a witness to both memory and injustice, preserving traces of lived experience over time. Functioning as a contemporary memento mori, Bedgood’s work reflects on transformation, impermanence, and the enduring weight of remembrance. 713-522-2336

    Houston artist Erika Alonso presents a powerful solo exhibition in the Bay 100 Gallery at the Silos at Sawyer Yards. Alonso's large watercolor compositions are abstract, but have palpable depth that draws you in. The layering and the wide variety of dynamic marks accumulate to just the right point of tension, conjuring narrative landscapes—spacious, imagined terrains animated by lyrical lines, repetition, and ritual. Visitors are invited to take a moment to reflect upon these landscapes and whatever creatures and stories they find waiting there. Join Alonso in Bay 100 Gallery on June 5, from 6-9 pm, for a public reception.

    Soccer—or fútbol—is more than a sport; it is a global language. As Houston prepares to take the world stage as a host city for the FIFA 2026 World Cup, Sabine Street Studios invited local artists to join the celebration. For Ballet of the Masses, more than 40 Houston artists have transformed regulation-size soccer balls into unique works of art. Suspended from the ceiling at Sabine Street Studios' South Gallery, the soccer balls create a vibrant aerial installation, like a constellation of imaginative planets. The exhibition is juried by local sports commentator and "crack", Glenn Davis.
