SUMMARY:Summer's Launch – Kellie Weeks & Jeanne Borofsky
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Sitka announces the exhibition “Summer’s Launch” by artists Jeanne Borofsky and Kellie Weeks. The public is invited to the free opening reception on Friday\, June 7 from 5:30-7:30pm; there will be refreshments and live music. Featured artists\, Borofsky and Weeks\, will be in attendance. The show will be displayed through July 9. \n  \n“Blue Horizon” by Jeanne Borofsky\nJeanne Borofsky whose studio is in Groton\, MA\, holds a BFA and MFA and is internationally recognized\, with paintings\, prints\, and drawings in numerous museums and private collections. \nA practicing artist for over 50 years\, Borofsky makes art with watercolors\, oils\, encaustics\, collages\, and prints – traditional\, photographic\, encaustic and digital. Borofsky is a member of The Boston Printmakers\, the Depot Square Artists\, the Monotype Guild of New England\, and New England Wax. \nMs. Borofsky states\, “Most of my current work is encaustic collage. Encaustic – painting with hot colored beeswax and damar resin – is a medium that was used by the ancient Greeks. I love the way beeswax creates both physical and visual depth and translucency to the work – adding to the mystery and magic I’m trying to convey. Whatever I put into my art\, it always includes the joy of creation\, the love of art\, and the happiness in my ability to create it.” \n  \n“The Fall” by Kellie Weeks\nKellie Weeks\, whose studio is in Fitchburg\, received a BFA from Bradford College in 2001. After years of exploring many media\, she is now focused on painting with pigment sticks and encaustic. While using encaustics for their insurmountable quality\, depth\, and brilliancy\, Weeks also incorporates dry pigments\, metal leaf\, shellac\, and other mixed media as vehicles to develop a wide lexicon of imagery. Kellie often abstracts elements of nature and her immediate surroundings combining both elements of bold and muted colors. These dynamic compositions lend themselves to stories of relationships and transformations. Kellie’s work has been exhibited nationally in many juried and group shows and is included in both private and public collections. \nWeeks offers\, “Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote\, “The Earth laughs in flowers.” Using encaustic and mixed media as vehicles to communicate abstracted floral compositions\, my paintings are intuitively created using color\, line\, and form as constructs for spiritual illumination. At times the imagery is more subtle than others yet all of the elements speak of journeys\, relationships\, and transformations.” \nTamar Russell Brown\, Gallery Sitka owner stated\, “Gallery Sitka is pleased to host what has become an annual show for Jeanne Borofsky and Kellie Weeks. They were introduced to us in year one of our gallery’s life. They have both now been with us for close to 10 years. Since Gallery Sitka is celebrating 10 years this summer\, we are thrilled to show these accomplished women to kick off the season!” \nAdditional information can be found at Gallery Sitka. \nView the show on Artsy\nRead the PR

SUMMARY:Peter Stultz
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Statement \n\nI believe that art is a 3-way communication between the artist\, his work and the viewer. A photographer uses his artistic vision to place a frame around a scene in order to say to the viewer “Look what I see here”. He will then use whatever technical tools and skills he has at his disposal to emphasize his vision of the scene. In my photography I prefer to not make any significant changes to the scene through the addition or removal of parts of the photo\, but rather through emphasizing or lessening contrast\, saturation and sharpness to better share my vision. Those changes may be somewhat dramatic or more subtle. In some cases the results can blur the boundary between pure photography and painting which is why I prefer the term “photo art” rather than photography. My hope is that these enhancements serve to better communicate my feelings of the scene and provide a new perspective to the viewer.  \nView the show on Artsy\n\n\nPlease visit the Bull Run’s website for their hours of operation. This show is in the artist’s walkway at the Bull Run through December 2024.

SUMMARY:Nature’s Patterns – Rebekah Robinson & Ylenia Mino
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Sitka announces “Nature’s Patterns” exhibit featuring two artists\, Ylenia Mino\, an Italian artist who resides in Long Beach\, California and Wailuku\, Hawaii\, and Rebekah Robinson who lives in Colorado. The exhibit reception is open and free to the public Thursday\, July 18\, 5:30-7:30pm; both artists will be in attendance. Gallery Sitka/Newport is located on the corner of Spring and Franklin Streets; the show will be displayed through August 2. \n“Blooming Elegance: A Symphony of Colors” by Ylenia Mino\nBorn and raised in the small town of Ivrea\, nestled at the foot of the Italian Alps\, Ylenia Mino studied with an extraordinary Egyptian painter who had trained under a French master. Ylenia pursued classical studies\, including ancient Greek\, Latin\, philosophy\, and art history\, as well as performance arts. \nIn March 2011\, Ylenia debuted as a solo artist at the International Artexpo in New York and later exhibited her work in San Francisco\, London\, Innsbruck (Austria)\, and across Italy. Living in California and Hawaii\, she founded Paint for a Purpose\, empowering individuals and teams through custom creative events\, as well as Furry Friend Portraits. \nMino shares\, “Art is my way of capturing and sharing the profound moments that define our lives. I endeavor to convey the deep emotions and connections that make each moment unique. Growing up at the foot of the Italian Alps\, I was inspired by the natural beauty and cultural richness around me. This inspiration drives me to create art that resonates with personal and universal stories\, imbued with the sophistication of European Italian artistry.” \n“Pontassive Italy” by Rebekah Robinson\nColorado-based artist Rebekah Robinson has studied painting\, printmaking\, photography and graphic design. The landscape has been an overarching theme in her work\, and patterns offer a continued focus. Robinson offers\, “While the natural patterns of leaves floating on a still pond draw my attention\, I am equally fascinated by the human-made patterns of field plantings\, mowings and gardens. At times\, I have focused on the intimate details—the petals of a flower\, the detritus in a flowing stream\, the reflections of water.” \nRobinison’s paintings in this show are representative of a broader view of nature and the inherent larger scope of her natural surroundings living in Colorado and traveling in the American Southwest and Europe.” \nGallery Sitka owner\, Tamar Russell Brown states\, “Ylenia Mino is one of Gallery Sitka’s earliest artists; we are thrilled to host her in our Newport space. Rebekah Robinson is a gallery friend via some of our newest artists. Both artists will be with us on July 18th and we welcome them to Newport!” \nView the show on Artsy\nRead the PR

SUMMARY:Harmonies in Motion – Marli Thibodeau
DESCRIPTION:“Luminous” by Marli Thibodeau\nGallery Sitka announces the exhibition “Harmonies in Motion” by contemporary artist Marli Thibodeau.  The public is invited to the free opening reception on Friday\, July 26 from 4:30-6:30pm; Thibodeau will be in attendance. The show will be on display through August 9. \nArtist Marli Thibodeau immerses herself in the study of the landscape around her as well as the inner landscape of self-discovery. Her paintings do not reference recognizable form\, and the purposeful omission of exact references are key elements in her work. Thibodeau’s techniques include opaque and transparent layers which represent the ongoing dialog between painter and painting. By questioning what is here now\, present within\, she creates intense personal moments on the canvas. \nThibodeau explains\, “I perceive my painting practice as a visual dance\, with my mark-making as gestures and my color choices as emotions. This approach requires me to remain open to possibility rather than having a set outcome in mind.” \nThibodeau\, a teacher of Azul Conscious Movement (a path of personal transformation)\, finds that movement reveals our inner state\, a reflection of our interior world. Thibodeau says\, “I believe that everyone has a unique way of expressing the experience of who they are\, and I’ve discovered that mine is through un-choreographed visual and movement art. As I paint\, I am continuously responding to what is here in the moment – to the instinctual connection of what is rising on the inside and how it is expressed in relation to what is on the canvas.” \nThibodeau maintains a year-round studio in Rockland\, Maine and in 2015 she\, with Karen Divine\, conceived the Being Set Free project\, a global collaboration of artists. \nAdditional information can be found at Gallery Sitka. \nView the show on Artsy\nRead the PR
