EFA Gallery is pleased to present a selection of works that unfold under the rubric of post-seduction, suggesting a value system that integrates disquiet and disorder alongside attraction. There are many registers at play, ranging from the confrontational to the poetic, often lingering in states of aftermath and longing. The works engage seduction as both a visual and conceptual strategy, drawing viewers in while simultaneously disrupting conventional expectations of desire, resolution, and fulfillment.

Sarah Leahy, Plain Sense

September 15 - December 8, 2026
Opening Reception: September 15, 6–8 pm

Curated by Deric Carner


EFA Gallery is thrilled to present an immersive wall painting by Sarah Leahy. Spanning 33 feet across two walls, this site-specific commission represents an intensification of Leahy's image-making practice. Rendered in black India ink directly on the white walls of the gallery, Plain Sense is, on the surface, an image of a beech grove. The title cues us to how the artist intends us to experience the work–directly, without special elaboration or recourse to fantasy.
