SUMMARY:Artist's Talk - M. Mark Bauer: THE\, THE
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Talk\nSaturday\, July 18th\, starting at 1 pm \nGallery Hours: Thursdays\, Fridays\, and Saturdays\, 12 – 5 pm \nGreat to see in person\, these paintings are not fast-read paintings. Check out a few details on our website\, come in for the full experience. For a complete explanation\, if that’s even possible\, please join us Saturday\, July 18th\, to hear from M. Mark Bauer about his work\, starting at 1 pm. \nWhat the ? \nWhat does it mean? Where DO we stand? \n​Mixed messages\, absurd scenarios\, improbable unrealities – M. Mark Bauer wades into dynamic narratives and an onslaught of incomprehensible untruths\, pervasive and invasive\, redirecting the course of events and outcome potentials at hand.  Mesmerizing rhythmic patterns groove in undulating serenity as wildly complex scenarios unfold in the eight canvases on view. Hybrid creatures and colorful characters cavort in a surreal concoction that speaks to the consequences of our collective insanity on each other and the natural world while sly humor entertains with bursts of sudden recognition. The Artist observes as Eye-hook\, Snake Tongue\, Bo Peep and a Sheep and The Big Bad Wolf join in this precisely executed spectacle of chaos.

SUMMARY:Artist’s Talk – Cate White: World Raw
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, July 11th\, starting at 4 pm  \nAll are welcome! Please join us for Cate White’s Talk for World Raw\, her solo show now on view now at Transmission Gallery. \nCate White brings fiercely powerful work to World Raw\, consisting of paintings and sculptures selected from the last twelve years. Come hear more about the work from Cate in person! \n“Over the years\, the work has delivered images of confinement and escape: caves\, cells\, thresholds\, thrashing\, illuminated openings. But the way to liberation is never clear\, and running beneath the work is an undercurrent of grief—for failed transformations\, lost certainties\, and the perpetual distance between desire and fulfillment. The sacred and ridiculous are merged. Enlightenment appears as a spray-painted glow.”  ~ Cate White

SUMMARY:Cate White: World Raw
DESCRIPTION:At Transmission Gallery through August 1st\, 2026\n(closed July 4th) \nAll are welcome\, please join us for Cate White Artist’s Talk:\nSaturday\, July 11th\, starting at 4 pm \nGallery hours: Thursdays\, Fridays and Saturdays\, 12 – 5 pm \nCate White brings fiercely powerful work to World Raw\, consisting of paintings and sculptures selected from the last twelve years. \nCate White’s Statement: \nThese works inhabit a world where personal memory\, dreams\, political reality\, religion\, banal culture\, and archetypal myth have not yet been separately categorized. Images translate from one story into another\, remixing contexts until they lose their fixed meanings. Armageddon arrives as a vaguely sinister faceless shmoo. The devil wears flip-flops with socks instead of cloven hooves. Horror and hilarity trade masks. The miraculous and the absurd share the same language. The sacred\, psychological\, traumatic\, mythic\, domestic\, and comic all stand on equal groundless ground.  \nOver the years\, the work has delivered images of confinement and escape: caves\, cells\, thresholds\, thrashing\, illuminated openings. But the way to liberation is never clear\, and running beneath the work is an undercurrent of grief—for failed transformations\, lost certainties\, and the perpetual distance between desire and fulfillment. The sacred and ridiculous are merged. Enlightenment appears as a spray-painted glow. \nThe process of painting is a tightrope act between intention and accident\, structure and impulse. Both order and chaos can become prisons. I am searching for a third place: moments of bewilderment\, play\, revelation\, or recognition. Rather than offering a coherent narrative\, these works invoke a raw world\, unfinished and alive\, where meaning is in the making.

SUMMARY:Artist’s Talk – Sonia Gill: Memento Vivere / Remember to Live
DESCRIPTION:Sonia Gill: Memento Vivere / Remember to Live\nArtist’s Talk starts at 2 pm – please join us – all are welcome! Free street parking nearby. \nIn Memento Vivere: Remember to Live\, Sonia Gill’s work invites us into a world where painting is reimagined through paper—where the brushstroke is replaced by the torn edge of a magazine fragment\, and color is discovered rather than mixed. Indeed\, Gill often refers to her collages as paintings. Thoughtful of composition and content\, Gill’s imagery emerges through a contemplative process with color drawn from a vast trove of magazine imagery.  \nImages pay homage to the daily moments from which our lives are built\, quiet\, repetitive\, and precious as they are. \nCome out to the artist’s talk to hear more from Sonia about her art practice\, philosophy and the development of the figurative work on view at Transmission Gallery. Events are free and open to the public. \nCan’t make the talk? See the work April 23 – June 6\, Thursdays\, Fridays and Saturdays\, 12-5pm and by appointment.

SUMMARY:Jeff Dikio: This Must Be the Place
DESCRIPTION:Jeff Dikio: This Must Be the Place\nApril 30 – June 13\, 2026 \nOpening Reception\, Saturday\, May 2nd\, 1-4 pm. \nIn This Must Be the Place\, Jeff Dikio reflects on the quiet spaces where memory\, environment\, and emotion intersect. Borrowing its title from the Talking Heads song\, the exhibition considers “place” not as a fixed location\, but as a feeling—something recognized in passing\, in fragments\, in moments of stillness. \nUsing paint chips in his collages\, Dikio reconstructs familiar “every day” scenes  into compositions that feel both grounded and unsettled. What emerges is a visual language of belonging\, where home is less about geography and more about resonance.” \nDikio is a Bay Area artist born in 1975 on Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines. Raised within a transient military culture\, he found early grounding in drawing and observation\, developing a lifelong sensitivity to place\, movement\, and change. \nIn his recent collages\, Dikio tries to capture the colorful and quirky architecture and scenes found in his immediate surroundings that are distinctive of the surrounding Bay Area. \nHe received his BA in Fine Arts from the University of California\, Santa Cruz in 1997\, and has since worked across figurative\, landscape\, and mixed-media practices.

SUMMARY:Sonia Gill: Memento Vivere/Remember to Live
DESCRIPTION:Sonia Gill: Memento Vivere/Remember to Live\nApril 23 – June 6\n____________ \n​Artists’ Reception\nconcurrent with reception for Jeff Dikio: This Must Be the Place\nSaturday\, May 2nd from 1-4 pm \n​Artist’s Talk\nSaturday\, May 16h at 2 pm \nClosing Reception\nSaturday\, June 6th from 1-4 pm \nIn Memento Vivere: Remember to Live\, Sonia Gill’s work invites us into a world where painting is reimagined through paper—where the brushstroke is replaced by the torn edge of a magazine fragment\, and color is discovered rather than mixed. \nBeginning with a photographic reference drawn from her everyday life\, Gill builds her compositions piece by piece through a slow and contemplative process. Drawing from a vast archive of printed matter: pages of magazines\, discarded scraps\, and remnants of images once whole\, she assembles hundreds of paper fragments translating the image into a new state of presence. Within this self-imposed constraint\, she embarks on a rigorous and intuitive search for the exact hue\, value\, or texture needed to bring a scene to life. \n​At its core\, this body of work is an homage to the quiet\, enduring moments that define human life: reading together\, tending to small rituals\, routine tasks and moments of reflection. In an era often marked by business and noise\, Gill’s practice offers a counterpoint—a deliberate slowing down\, a careful reconstruction of meaning through attention and care reminding us that life’s significance resides not in spectacle\, but in the accumulation of small\, luminous moments. This work is a reminder – remember to live. \nTrained as a painter and influenced by mentor’s Jay DeFeo and Ron Dahl\, Gill graduated with a BFA from California College of Arts and Crafts\, in addition to degrees from Michigan State University in French. With a robust exhibition history\, she has shown extensively in the Bay Area with solo exhibitions dating  over the past twenty years and inclusion in a long list of juried shows. Her work has been published in Studio Visit Magazine and 48 Hills\, among other publications\, and recognition in painting and watercolor with awards from the Sebastopol Center for the Arts\, Northern National Art Competition\, Richmond Art Center and Fort Bragg Art Center.
