First Friday Opening Reception: “From the Earth, We Rise”
Join us for the Opening Reception of From the Earth, We Rise! Featuring work by SKimberly Stemler and Nancy Gordon.
Friday, October 3rd, 6p – 8p
About the Exhibition:
From the Earth, We Rise is an exploration of movement and surrender in human nature’s purest form. Showcasing the work of artists Kimberly Stemler and Nancy Gordon, striving to balance their expression of inspired nostalgia with their colorful brushstrokes. Stemler’s investigative nature draws upon a deeper understanding of connection with her own ancestry, questioning one’s own identity. Her main subject matter is divided between landscape, object, and myth. She draws heavily on the wistfulness of memory, creating a space for viewers to reflect. Gordon continuously shows a vibrant enthusiasm to break away from the bounds of realism, and delve deeper into the potential of what abstraction can be. Gaining her influence from the Impressionists, her work lives in its own natural world. With the work of these two artists, this exhibition celebrates the everchanging growth of both body and soul. From the way we came to the way we return, From the Earth, We Rise reminds us of the joy we can find in the horizon, until the sun sets on our next tomorrow.
