Charms Against Harm
TempestJen Angulo Salguero Casey Lin Kate Sherman Rose Silberman-Gorn Tempest is pleased to present Charms Against Harm a charged contemplation of home, protective talismans, games and soothing rituals which anchor us and build a feeling of safety and stability in uncertain times. Latina painter and native New Yorker, Jen Angulo Salguero (b. 1979) works in various combinations of textiles, acrylic paint and ink, on felt, paper, and wood. Her work is informed by her childhood in New York’s Rockaway Beach, magical realism, US intervention in Latin America, memory versus mythology, and the dark sense of humor she considers her primary family inheritance. Casey Lin (she/her) is a sculptor and educator originally from Queens, NY. She is now based in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, and works as a teaching artist. Casey received her BFA in 2016 from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She is currently a 2026 MS Ed. Candidate at Bank Street College of Education. Lin’s artwork is rooted in the play of materials with the theme of childhood and the body. She mainly sculpts with craft materials as well as ceramics, metals and glass. Along with her sculpture practice, Lin uses her art education background by curating community workshops and exhibitions at local ceramics studios and community art spaces. Lin’s work has been exhibited in Chicago, Indiana, Milwaukee, New York City, Tennessee, Maine, North Carolina, and Wisconsin.
