Emergence, June 2023

WELCOME TO OUR GROUP EXHIBITION!

CURATED BY JESSICA LIBOR

 
 

ABOUT THE EXHIBIT

In this exhibition, we’re celebrating the true definition of emergence - a process of coming into being. For many artists, the creative practice provides a space for new ideas and discoveries to surface, grow, and materialize. Whether it be a painting, sculpture, photograph, or installation, art has the innate ability to turn the metaphysical into the physical. This virtual exhibit is a culmination of representational, figurative, abstract, and conceptual work.

NOTE FROM THE CURATOR

Welcome to the Emergence exhibition, which was such a delight to curate.

Drawing inspiration from nature, art history, and spiritual references, each piece in this collection embodies the essence of new beginnings. From colorful abstract paintings to intricate artworks and sensual sculptures, every work of art tells a unique story of Emergence.

Within this exhibition, each work captures the essence of emergence with vibrant colors and thoughtful details, bringing to life the beauty of new growth and transformation.

Another aspect I love about this collection is that many of the pieces are made of  recycled materials, which symbolizes the importance of sustainability and the cycle of life. These creative artists have skillfully crafted pieces to represent the interconnectedness of all living things, reminding us of the importance of caring for our planet and each other.

Overall, this collection is a celebration of the beauty of new life and the infinite possibilities that come with new beginnings. 

I invite you to explore this collection and discover the magic of Emergence for yourself.
