My name is Gary Zidek. Welcome to The Arts Section. Tune into the radio program every Sunday morning on WDCB 90.9 & 90.7 FM or listen to it online here. I'll be showcasing a variety of arts & entertainment stories.
“I’m able to find the time and the means to create work in a free and flowing way, and it was at the skin of my teeth, I almost didn’t pull it off. I finally found this way to balance my life and make work.” - Artist Ray Borchers talking about the good place she’s in now.
Whether it’s playing in a band, creating visual art or designing clothes, Chicago-based artist Ray Borchers has always pursued creative endeavors. But Borchers feels like she’s balancing things better these days and has the time to explore the creative process like never before. Her new solo exhibition, COASTING ON NONE, recently opened at The Dime in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood.
COASTING ON NONE will be on display at The Dime (1513 North Western Avenue) through September 5. You can find more information about Ray’s work at rayborchers.com
