CASTING CURRENTS

On View May 13, 2022 - July 16, 2022

It is fascinating, inspiring, and reflective; it is pure and tranquil while simultaneously tempestuous and forbidding. It is impossible to control, unreliable and marvelously mysterious. It is water, and it is the creative source of expression for the six artists in CASTING CURRENTS. Whether utilizing it as a medium itself, finding inspiration in simply viewing it, or looking to its depths for further meaning, this group exhibition explores the fluidity, symbolism, and representation of our life source.  Join us to explore connections between water and artwork, as well as showcasing our harmonious relationships with the outside world.

This group exhibition features the work of ANA ŽANIĆ, ALLISON SVOBODA, SHARON STRASBURG, DANNY WILLIAMS, PATRICIA FINLEY and BONNY LHOTKA

ANA ŽANIĆ

ANA ŽANIĆ presents “Reef”, a watercolor series inspired by distant memories of summers on the Adriatic Sea in her homeland of Croatia. These paintings have evolved through quiet tension between the fluidity, softness, and calm of the loose washes. The transparency and vulnerability of the creative process through watercolor inspires Žanic to draw this metaphor to life itself.

ALLISON SVOBODA

ALLISON SVOBODA approaches her painting process as an intuitive response to life. The cycle of life and death and the fractals found in nature from microscopic to galactic provide constant fascination as small worlds emerge within the alchemy of water, pigment, and elements in her pieces. She seeks to bring the viewer a sense of impermanence while conveying the paradox of growth and destruction.

BONNY LHOTKA

Leaving the traditional one dimension of the flat canvas, BONNY LHOTKA explores the ebb and flow of reality and how one experiences the world of art in three dimensions. In her latest series, Lhotka presents a composite of lenticular photographs of the movement of water flowing up, over, and under to create a woven blanket of beautiful forms dancing in the sunlight.

PATRICIA FINLEY

Water, particularly ocean water, is a primal draw for PATRICIA FINLEY, and the basis of inspiration for her latest series. The irresistible appeal of the vast blueness, multi-colored blue-greens and extraordinary shades of teal instill lasting intrigue, which she captures in her resin + acrylic paintings. The freedom of floating exhilarates and compels her full attention in the creative process.

SHARON STRASBURG

SHARON STRASBURG presents rich tapestries of saturated color, pattern and variation in her laser cut monotypes. Firmly believing that process is in service to content, her work begins with complex drawings of the natural world and ends with a combination of printmaking and laser cutting to showcase varieties of multi-hued contours in abstracted land and seascapes.
