ALL IN ONE
Artists: Lowell Boyers, Minako Iwamura, Andrei Petrov, Jeff Quinn, Andra Samelson and Suzanne Unrein
There are some artists who understand and embrace the actualization of their art as mutably BOTH Representational and Abstract. By rejecting the ghettoization of labels and strict narrative art historical codifications their work can reach within and outward in ways that are wholly less restrictive and burdened. Instead, the work manifests as One Voice that sings, communicating with variable dimensions and contextual intention, comfortable to allow for material “thusness” as well being read as symbolic and narrative expressions.
Art operates functioning as the representation of place, form, moments, feelings, and conceptual belief, and rawly, abstract expressions, notes, singular marks, and objectified phenomena, sensational, vibration. The adherence of some artists to define their concepts and artworks as “non-representational’ or “abstract” for understanding purposes can actually mislead and guide the viewer to CLOSE OFF their experience of the work of art. The work of art that allows for open reception, mutable moods and contextual lenses, functions in its fullest capacity for the benefit of the culture, the audience and for the alchemy of creative communication. It allows for the varying Experience of the viewer to grow and transform over time. This exhibition works to portray some of the multiple forms of expressions such intention can define.

FUTURE MYTH
Artists: Frank Ape, Chee Bravo, DISTORT, Patrick Dougher, Mason Eve, Isabelle Ewing, Ivan Orama, Franc Palaia, Brian Rothwell, Ian Sullivan, Misha Tyutyunik
The histories of the world are sown by grand narratives, myths, and tales, and they are born from countless cultural and individual contexts and perspectives. Artists have always reflected on these narratives, and, in doing so, have also formed the ways we think about and see the world we live in. Their forms and practice crystallize the way we experience our popular myths and narrative foundations for expression and understanding. This exhibition is curated to reveal the way artists see and define their worlds through the culture of personal and cultural myths that helped form their perspective on the world they’re living in. Real stories and examples in the lives of the artist’s will also be rich resources for these reflections. The artist's creative approaches are extremely diverse in play with context, craft, and selected media. And, in so doing, ideally, the impressions and alteration of the myths of the/our world will perpetuate.

Yujing Wang
The exhibition focuses on women's unique thinking about life, culture and society.

As a gender instinct of women, this multi-dimensional sorority injects vitality of freedom, peace, goodness and beauty into their works, and also represents the ideal of life they pursue and the voice they convey to the outside world.

'Unconformity leads to discovery. Thinking outside the line, mentally and physically, can lead to vital breakthroughs, intentional or, at times, accidental. When a line or stroke is made on canvas, a conversation starts: the more interesting the line, the better the conversation. My intentions here are to show you some paintings I made from postcard-size sketches. Much can happen when a small idea is projected to a scale multiple times larger. Adjustments have to be made, at times, so the intrinsic meanings in the small sketches can be translated to a larger format. Intimate sizes sometimes want to stay small.It’s hard to know when this type of encounter will arise, but one has to make hard choices. And some of those choices will fall outside the lines' - Andrei Petrov
