The DOJA Gallery and Art Space

Enter The DOJA Gallery trough a narrow flight of stairs crowded with people entering and exiting. There is artwork on the walls next to the stairway as well as in the foyer — lettin’ ya know what’s goin’ on here. The space feels cramped but this does not detract from the charm of the space. The gallery gives you many choices of rooms in which to wind and slither through. Last time I was here the space ended in a small room with a chair massage [for a small donation]. The last time I visited, the featured artist was Chris Guarino whose sculpture and digital pieces remind me of Tim Burton or the deranged toys in ‘Toy Story’ created from mismatched body parts. The artwork was definitely dark in content but with playfulness. This is a great gallery; I have seen a couple of excellent exhibits here.
