Rooted: Juried Members Exhibition
various artistsFebruary 3 @ 10:00 am - April 5 @ 4:00 pm
For the 24th annual Juried Members Exhibition, artists were invited to explore their connection to the land through works that honour the quiet power, resilience, and beauty found in the natural world. By exploring the common theme this year of ‘Rooted,’ the goal was for artists to foster a sense of connection – between themselves, their works, and the land we share. Whether depicting actual terrains or abstract impressions of flora, soil, and stone, artists were encouraged to reflect on the physical landscape, memories and identity with an to the land, the natural world’s patterns of seasonal cycles, growth, decay, and renewal and/or the relationship between human and habitat. ‘Rooted’ invites reflection on what grounds us, literally and metaphorically.
With 37 works from over 88 submissions, this 24th annual celebration of our member artists showcases a variety of works with different media and style, all while connecting with one another across the shared theme of ‘Rooted.’
Please join us for the Opening Reception on Saturday, February 7 from 1 to 4 pm, with artist remarks at 2 pm.
Congratulations to all of this year’s selected artists and thanks to everyone who submitted works.
