The Riverside Arts Center’s FlexSpace is pleased to present One Ends Another Begins, an exhibition featuring drawings qnd artists' books by Regin Igloria. His ongoing exploration of movement and travel is expressed in a series of narratives, one-liners, and characters. The works depict wanderers and walkers, a glimpse into their origin stories, and momentary encounters with the landscape.
