Exhbitionista: “Telling Stories” with Shoebox Arts

By

I am thrilled to participate in: 

“Telling Stories”

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 2022 3-5pm PST: Zoom Opening Reception and artist talks

Presented by Shoebox Projects

Curated by Michelle Robinson, Artist and Curator

“Art and craft are means to tell stories visually. Through mythology, fairy tales, cultural commentary, dream imagery, family history, and personal narrative, art has sought to examine the challenges and mysteries of how we live; to interpret and understand our world and share those thoughts with others. This exhibition showcases how artists are telling stories now, from abstract and non-linear to representational and narratives” at Shoebox Projects“

See the show and hear the Artists Talk HERE!
