Art, in many ways, is all about reflection. The thirty-plus artists who have turned their focus on literal, as well as more cerebral reflection, are celebrating one of the most important virtues of being human. This show is all about our world and the lives we lead. How do thought, spirituality, raw emotion and vigorous action play out in daily life - and how does the artist, in particular, respond?
The questions are endless, and the answers are incomplete - yet this show examines all of that and more...
We hope to enlighten visitors on many levels, providing an overt look at how art reflects life as well as how images and forms of thought bounce back.
