Inspired by the evocative phrase “curiouser and curiouser,” the exhibition explores themes of heightened curiosity and the experience of encountering the unexpected. While the phrase suggests an intensification of wonder, it also calls to mind the familiar image of the white rabbit, signaling moments when situations become increasingly strange, perplexing, or surreal.
Presented at the Hopkinton Center for the Arts, Curiouser & Curiouser connects Fountain Street Artists with a broader community, inviting viewers into a diverse range of artistic interpretations. The works on view examine scenarios that span from puzzling mysteries to unfolding events that challenge assumptions and defy expectations.
Through a wide array of media and perspectives, the exhibition encourages audiences to embrace curiosity and engage with art that surprises, intrigues, and provokes reflection.
