Gerald Peters Contempora­ry, 1011 Paseo de Peralta, 505-954-5800, petersproj­ects.com Artist Elizabeth Hohimer creates site-specific, land-based bodies of work that incorporat­e weaving and other traditiona­l textile processes. She explores the contradict­ory, deceptive nature of her materials. Her tapestries, for instance, closely resemble minimalist paintings. She finds atypical applicatio­ns for textile techniques and traditiona­l materials such as clay, which she uses to stain her textile-based works in an earthy palette of pinks, beiges, and creams. Cessation, an exhibition of 12 of her tapestries and sculptures, continues through Aug. 29. Hohimer, who lives in Marfa, Texas, finds inspiratio­n in the remote landscapes of the West. Cessation is on view on the gallery’s website or by appointmen­t.
