West Cove/A‑Space Gallery, 30 Elm Street, West Haven

until February 9 

What if we sailed to Byzantium, as W.B. Yeats imagined? What if its shining walls looked like this? The lattice work lets in flashes of a glory just out of reach. It might be the record of a zoetrope’s progress, the images in the turning cylinder here spun out across the surface. This New Haven artist’s work is in place just across the city border. It would be worth going to another country to see it. And through its bright weaving, another country is what you will see.
