Our Art Show in the Dark is off to a great start with over 150 people stopping by for opening night.
Everyone has their own favorite piece/artist but the consensus seems to be that using a flashlight brings you into an active relationship with the art.
You and the artist create your experience together. What do you see?
“Using the flashlight makes you feel like you are in it.”
“Love the way these come alive with the flashlight.”
Cheryl Laube and Becky Jaffe play with illuminating shadows on the wall. Cheryl’s pieces explore concepts of beauty and being a woman, while Becky dives into mood – reflecting our shifting emotions.
A new artist to watch out for, JJ Fryzal, was a big hit with her florescent & 3-D artwork taking viewers to another world entirely.
Myles Boisen combines scary and playful, each sweep of the flashlight showing a different face.
Kristen Hoard’s metal sculptures were also a big draw for many.
And there’s more! Happy /L.A. Hyder, Styrous, Courtney McCutcheon, Elisa Salasin, C. Brooks, Mercy Calman, Lanell Dike, Kamran Golriz and Eli Jenkins. And in the backroom, Carrie-Andrea Kaye created an installation piece featuring video by Gustavo Porras.
And we can’t forget our fabulous musicians Zoe Boekbinder and Dakota Belle Witt who played despite the cold weather. A huge thanks to both of them for their music and good spirits!
The fun continues tonight starting at 4pm with music by Cara Wick and Kim Lembo. Looks like more rain is in the forecast but we have tarps & a tent up to keep you dry if you want to hang out in the backyard.
Look how much fun people are having. Come join us!
