About the Exhibition
paper. color. lines.
LnS Gallery is pleased to present paper. color. lines., an exhibition of acrylic-on-paper paintings by Karen Rifas, produced over more than a decade of sustained practice and inquiry into geometry, structure, and color.
A grounding figure in Miami’s artistic history, Rifas has maintained an active presence since the 1980s. This exhibition highlights the evolution of her acrylic-on-paper works across a pivotal decade in her long career, marking a near-exclusive shift toward painting.
Paper—a medium that admits neither erasure nor disguise—has long been associated with material honesty. For Rifas, it becomes not a preparatory surface but a site of investigation. Through chromatic tension, shifting scales, and a keen sense of balance, she composes fully resolved works within a draftsman’s arena, where the white space of the paper is animated—or quieted—by its kaleidoscopic counterparts.
About the Performance
Sun Jennifer Park is a choreographer, dancer, and scholar who holds a PhD in Philosophy of Dance from Hanyang University in Seoul. Her work explores the relationship between physical movement and the human spirit, bridging intellectual inquiry and embodied practice.
Jorge Dasiel Rosales is a Cuban dancer with more than a decade of experience in Latin and contemporary dance, as well as acrobatics. He has been evaluated in contemporary dance by Cuba’s National Council of the Performing Arts.
Mary Helene Spring holds an MFA in Dance from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and a BA in Dance from Mount Holyoke College. Her artistic development has been deeply influenced by her collaboration with Dale Andree.
Director Dale Andree has been dancing, choreographing, and teaching in Miami for over forty years. Long connected to the artistic spaces shaped by Karen Rifas, he approaches this project as an exploration of humanity through abstract form.
