The Cube is designed as a traditional gallery space: a square with grey walls and a wood panel floor. The visitor enters the Cube through a portal from the front page of the exhibition, which is designed like a museum lobby.

Directly in front of the entrance is a wall with three oil on paper paintings titled Red Handed, by Michelle Frey.

Accessible Alt Text: Brightly colored abstract paintings made with shadow drawings of hands with almost recognizable objects. Drawn with charcoal, oil pastel and oil paint on Arches oil painting paper, then mounted on wood panels.

Image Description: Three works on paper hung side by side, one vertical, one horizontal and again a vertical. All three are bright colored abstract paintings with some sort of hand or hands in them. Bright turquoise, green, blue reds and oranges. Caught "red-handed" in our culture's current dialectic struggles. This forming series of abstract oil paintings attempts to grasp the confusing forces of societal culpability while holding on to what we value.
