Forward
Tappan is pleased to present Forward, a group exhibition. Through gestures of ascent—soaring, reaching, and moving forward —this exhibition traces the energy of uplift. Whether through achievement, loss, encouragement, growth, or factors often out of our control, we are forced to deal with the shifts brought by change. Artists capture moments of transformation, where momentum meets possibility, and the weight of the past gives way to new horizons. A celebration of flight in all its forms, Forward invites us to rise.
