norMAL and unreMARKable

norMAL and unreMARKable is an exhibition of multi-disciplinary work by Henry G. Sanchez and me, currently on view at Throughline Collective Gallery in the Midtown District of Houston, Texas, through February 8, 2026. Throughline is located at 3909 Main Street, Houston, 77002, and exhibition hours have been extended to include Fridays through Sundays, from 12-6pm, until the end of the show. Private tours are also available by appointment; please contact me to make one.

The title norMAL and unreMARKable repurposes a comforting phrase commonly used in medical exam results that report “healthy” findings. We have appropriated the phrase to confront the persistence of technological and chemical solutions that humans have adopted for the maintenance of our daily lives. Considering this dichotomy to be physically and socially precarious, Henry and I both use our own experiences to question how we so often accept unconditionally the accelerating degradation of the environment, our social bonds, and consequentially, our mental and physical health. In this show I work with embroidery and drawing to explore, through the lens of my love for machines, the physical manifestations of environmental toxicity brought on by our dependence on technology. Henry experiments with multimedia installations to consider how his 2017 diagnosis of Stage 4 colon cancer resulted in the halting of his artistic ambitions - simultaneously opening doors for personal vision and expression.

There will be a closing reception on Sunday, February 8th, from 4 to 6pm. Feel free to join us or to make an appointment to visit!
