Alter / Altar conjures a strange and sacred environment with sui generis works drawn from various periods in Stephanie Rayner’s visionary career.  Known for probing explorations of both spiritual and scientific terrain, Rayner encourages viewers to reflect on the frontiers of human knowledge and the disparate paths we might take to reach these limits.  In this exhibition alone, she employs such unique, uncanny materials as children’s teeth, a meteorite, and a wasp’s nest, inviting viewers into communion with uncertain forces.
