Var Gallery is excited to announce Bridge Work 12 "Permeable Skin" featuring artists Isaac Shea Levin, Ellery Pascual, & Marta Tereziya 🎉

"Permeable Skin" is a collection of interdisciplinary artworks that reflect each artist’s interpretation of fragile beliefs, systems, and an uncertain trust in what lies ahead. These works explore our ancestors' histories, our personal narratives, and examine the current state of the world.

Check out some detail shots from our new exhibition, Common Ground! Join us this Friday, October 9th from 5-7pm for the opening reception.

Common Ground explores the possibilities of working with natural materials, bringing together artists whose practices engage with these mediums. The featured works demonstrate the diverse ways artists transform raw materials into objects of beauty, meaning, and innovation. Each work reflects a unique engagement with its medium, revealing how natural materials can be manipulated and reimagined. By presenting these varied artistic perspectives, Common Ground highlights the conversation between material and maker. This exhibition serves as both a tribute to the natural world and an exploration of materiality as a creative force. It invites viewers to consider the origins of the materials that surround them and to reflect on the ways artists cultivate dialogue between natural materials and contemporary artistic practice.

We are excited to introduce the first of four artists featured in our upcoming show Common Ground, which runs from October 7th to October 30th! Make sure to join us next Friday, October 9th for the opening reception from 5-7pm.

Ellery Pascual (any/all) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Milwaukee, WI. Pascual received their BFA from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design (MAY 2026). They use painting and ceramic sculpture to create objects that serve as emotional archives, cataloging complex feelings shaped by societal systems and their influence on multicultural experiences. Their work has been exhibited in numerous group shows across Milwaukee, including Walker’s Point Center for the Arts, Portrait Society, Gray Area, and Satéllite Gallery. Pascual was a recipient of the Partner Scholarship Program and studied at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center (JUL 2025).

Artist's Statement:
Overwhelmed by social hierarchies, I create to dismantle layers of patriarchal tradition through raw emotion. My artistic practice is deeply tied to my Afro-Latino and queer identities, reflecting my multifaceted experiences. I produce both vessels and paintings that serve as emotional archives, cataloging complex feelings shaped by societal systems and their influence on multicultural experiences.

My creative process is intuitive; the shapes of my vessels emerge organically, guided by instinctive coils, while the surfaces of my canvases are informed by reclaimed scrap, paper, and discarded materials. This approach reflects the exchange between gut feeling and impulsive action, allowing me to develop honest depictions of my experiences that adorn both my ceramic works and paintings.

Through vibrant imagery and tactile forms, I convey deeply personal narratives that reflect the manufactured double consciousness imposed on my ancestors, and which I now navigate. Each piece serves as a lifeline, providing a means to understand the world without the constraints of assimilation.
