Event: Imaginarium
Dates: 17 Mar 2024 - 28 Apr 2024
The Imaginarium includes the work of 30 visual artists that is fantastical, magical, unreal, visionary, unlikely, fictitious, phantasmagoric, invented, otherworldly, oddly narrative, mythic, bizarre, uncanny and/or impossible.
The work in this exhibit embodies a diverse interpretation of making the “unseen” visible. As Albert Einstein said "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution."
Biography

Member of AIS (American Impressionist Society)
Art is an addiction and a quest. I cannot stop myself from picking colors and putting them on canvas or paper. Sometimes the process is agonizing, when trying to capture an emotion for instance, sometimes it is calming, as in painting a landscape. My aim is to create something beautiful to look at, whether it is a tree, an animal, a portrait, or an abstract. Life is becoming so difficult and complex that it robs us of time to reflect and appreciate the simple things. I try to sublimate the anxiety of modern life through my art.
