Davis’s realist images depict empty kitchen tables, living rooms, and porches; piles of records and plants in macrame holders. While his paintings emerge from his own lived experience, their investigation of the domestic possesses universal resonance for all viewers, particularly those familiar with the 1970s. Refreshments will be served.
