Opening Reception Friday, February 15th 5-8 p.m.

For many creatives, art is not simply a means of expression, but also functions as a strategy for making sense of the world around them; these constructs of meaning provide the artist with an insight that is subjective yet transcendental, appealing to the narrative of personal experience while also reaching out to grasp further understanding. The selected artists in this exhibition all achieve this in a variety of ways, from Belinda Lee’s multi-layered paintings that convey systems related to “maps, plants, and the human form” to Benjamin Lowder’s process of “drawing people’s awareness to Nature’s sacred geometry” through form and pattern, showing the “matrix of geometry” that “balances out chaos”.
