Cinders group-show alums Suzanne Sattler and Mel Kadel collaborate on their first two-person show in New York, Swirl of Swarm, which conveys the need for a little personal space. Kadel's coffee-stained kaleidoscopic drawings explore anxiety and aggression. Her images of teetering balance and multiplicity have the colorful lyricism of children's books, but supply enough neurosis to give the Williamsburg crowd their fix. Similarly, Sattler's graphite drawings juxtapose wispy feminine lines with the grotesque. Flies and bees swarm in The Keeper; wolves chomp limbs in Antagonism; and, in The Bloody Nose, hummingbirds extract blood from a man's nostrils.
