The Show

Everything we carry back, and choose to keep.

Christi Meril has spent years on the move. Northern California. The Rockies. Santa Fe.
New York. Each place left something with her, and she brought it home to Dallas.
At first this show was about objects. The things we pack and keep and cannot put down.
Then it grew into something larger. Memory. Dreams. The people who shape us. The quiet
work of finding your way back to yourself.

The Long Journey Home is about that homecoming. Not the house you live in, but the
self you keep returning to. It asks one simple question. What parts of yourself do you
give yourself permission to bring home?

You will walk in and find the familiar sitting next to the unexpected. That is the point. We
want you to leave curious about your own way home.

What to Expect

• Original work by Christi Meril, curated alongside ALG Resident Artists Anna Curnes and Lisa Moriarty.
• First access to view and acquire stunning contemporary fine art in a wide range of sizes.
• Meet Christi Meril – mix, mingle, and hear firsthand how Christi created and found inspiration for her redwood installations and latest canvas paintings.

This collection explores materials such as charcoal from a Santa Fe campfire, redwood
from the California coast, paper cut, sewn and cast by hand. Christi turns the ordinary into something you want to look at twice, and asks quiet questions about memory, home and what we choose to keep.

"The Long Journey Home" is her new solo show, and her most personal to date.
