“‘Here & There’ invites the audience to explore the minds of an eclectic group of artists whose work evokes raw emotion, friendship, and ethereal dream-like worlds. Each piece invites you to explore the intimate, individual minds of the artists with the through line of kinship, friendship, and an insatiable need to create.”
Here & There unites a variable, highly talented group of eight artists that helm from the local haunts of San Francisco & Oakland, the greater Los Angeles area, New York, Mexico City, Canada, and Oklahoma.
The works of Here & There range from realism to contemporary abstraction, graphic design-inspired, and everything in between. Each artist has a vastly different style, but they are all united by kinship, creativity, and an underlying ethos of being genuinely themselves through self-expression. Not one artist in this show is a stranger. Though each individual may live in a different geographic location or create in a different style, the commonality in valuing creativity, and making art both publicly and privately, each artist brings their unique flavors Here & There & everywhere they touch.
