FORCES OF NATURE
2D media
Show Dates: May 15 – June 18, 2021
This exhibition is a juried selection of artists work on the theme of Forces of Nature. The juror is Jill Parry, artist and educator. The theme is a response to, and inspired by, the magnificent display of geodes in ”Nature’s Art ll” currently on exhibition in the main gallery at the Rye Arts Center (RAC). We are looking for artwork that will echo, relate to or be inspired by this theme. Artists will show how this theme can be conceptualized and expressed through their own interpretation and vision, in their chosen medium. A broad interpretation is encouraged to create a thought provoking exhibition.
The show will be shown online at https://mamaroneckartistsguild.org/
