Hiding In Plain Site is both a retrospective and a debut-a rare window into the creative world of Joseph A. Henseler, a multidisciplinary artist unveiling more than 30 years of unseen work. This expansive solo exhibition traces his lifelong journey across diverse media, including sculpture, painting, stained glass, copper, weaving, photography, poetry, and site-specific installations. 

Working largely outside the spotlight, Henseler has developed a distinctive voice rooted in the belief that art can be made from anything and found everywhere. His pieces-created from reclaimed, found, and everyday materials-challenge conventional boundaries, inviting viewers to reconsider where and how art can exist.

“Show up anywhere and look at the surrounding nature; there is art. Discarded paper, there is art. Look at the lighting after dark; there is art. Focus on anything at all, and you will find art. The artist’s job is to follow through and show what is often already in the open.” — Joseph Henseler

This exhibition features over 80 works, including original pieces and limited-edition prints. None of them were commissioned or computer-generated. Instead, they form a deeply personal archive-an exploration of materials, memory, and meaning.

 More than just a retrospective, Hiding In Plain Site acts as a prologue-a glimpse of what’s to come from an artist committed to presence, perception, and purpose through creation.
