“I’m telling you stories. Trust me.” – Jeanette WintersonSutures:  Stories with Seams presents just that, a body of fragments.  This ongoing series (currently comprising 20 diptychs and video vignettes) by Rebecca Webb joins seemingly unrelated frames where personal and anonymous meet.  Friends, family, and the self are the subject of one frame; the compliment is a forsaken place or abandoned scene. Tension emerges in our desire to unify the images.  While for Webb the work is extremely personal it functions on many levels, as the specific becomes the general.  The intensity of the personal narrative comes through in feelings of fear and joy; disappointment and hope; longing, desire, and attainment.  We feel this work, it affects us in a strange and unsettling way- rather than turn from the scene we find ourselves longing to engage, to sew back together that which is torn.  -- written by gallery director, Jennifer De Carlo of JDC Fine Art GalleryArchival digital c-prints.
