"Through an open-ended process, we collaborated to produce one body of work.  From two peoples with a heritage of conflict, Arab and Jewish, we went beneath the surface to explore the idea of shared ancestry.  Viewers enter a passage - glassine paper painted with henna - a labyrinth leading to an enclosed space, a sand strewn inner sanctum."

 

Gallery Two, Edie Abnet

May 17th - June 23rd, 2013

"For me, [painting] is pure design process and color; it's never been about making a certain statement.  I have never had any preconceived notion of what I want the viewer to think.  The viewer brings their own set of aesthetics and feelings there - I want them to feel enjoyment from the color, movement, texture, materials, and size.  I want their imagination to fall into that color and go where it will."

 

Gallery Two, Julie Abnet

"I found my voice when I found photography.  I employ digital photgraphy to experiment with angles and lighting and to see things in a way I've not seen them before.  I'm particularly drawn to details fo flowers and plants.  I'm able to achieve abstractions of everyday images as I use the macro lens."

Gallery Three, Elizabeth Paper

Opening reception: May 17, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
May 17th - June 23rd, 2013

"This exhibit, Images of Peace, represents my prayer for our time.  I began the images ten years ago after looking at One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji by 19th century Japanese artist Hokusai.  Unlike my previous drawing, this time I started to 'draw' with scissors on Chiyogami paper.  No two images came out alike.  Over the past decade on my travels throughout Asia, I also have photographed images of peace."

The Commons, Lonnie Broden

Opening reception: May 17, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
May 17th - June 23rd, 2013

"Almost all of my work is spontaneous - something inspires me, a certain setting, building, mood, or a person or group of people, and I set up my easel and my tripod and paint and photgraph what I see.  Once home, I download everything I have captured including photos of the paintings(s) in various stages of completion.  Using computer software, I blend the images ... I align one element that becomes the focal point and allow the rest to fall creating a swirl of color and pattern that is lively and moving."

 

Overlook Gallery, Lana Sjoberg

Opening reception: May 17, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
May 17th - June 23rd, 2013

"I create hats inspired by cultural headdresses, folklore and mythology, children's drawings or their descriptions, playing with scraps or shapes, or quite often, by mistake ... The work in this exhibit grew out of a vacation in Costa Rica and seeing so much potential in all the textures and colors, variety of vegetation and species of bugs and animals.  I knew I wanted the enhibit to feel like a rainforest with everything in fleece, wearable."
