SUMMARY:The Fragile Beautiful Earth – Earth Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:“Bound Remnants in Brick” by Barbara Groh Wahlstrom\nNewport\, R.I.\, April 7\, 2023 – Gallery Sitka’s latest exhibition\, “The Fragile Beautiful Earth” opens with a reception on Earth Day\, Saturday\, April 22\, 2-4 pm.   \nMany of the 26 participating artists will be in attendance for the gallery reception. The juried exhibition will be shown through May 25 (with gallery hours Thurs.-Sun.). \nCurator\, Beth Barry\, offers\, “We have all been called upon to repurpose\, reduce\, reuse\, recycle\, restore\, and reinvent our planet we depend on. As artists\, we inherently do this – make and remake something uniquely our own. For this exhibit\, we asked artists to incorporate and channel their emotions about our fragile planet into creations of the earth’s beauty. Artists’ interpretations range from literal\, metaphorical\, to spiritual.” \nThe materials\, as well\, range from conventional to unconventional; from oil paint to detritus; from literal earth to discarded plastic bags and bottles. Used and deflated helium balloons make for a large jellyfish hanging from the wall. Abstract landscapes\, encaustics\, and photography round out the show’s works. \nGallery Sitka owner\, Tamar Russell Brown offers\, “We feel strongly about our responsibility for the health of our planet. Our way of paying attention\, and drawing attention\, is through our actions – including artwork.” \n“With Beth being a NY-based artist\, and I\, a New England-based gallery owner\, we were able to draw upon a wide\, diverse and talented pool of artists for this show. We have selected 45 works by 27 artists and are excited to share these intriguing and thought-provoking results on Earth Day through the end of May.” \nView the show on Artsy\nRead the PR\n
