Opal Moon Fauna
Art Thou Gallery, Berkeley, CA
May 1st - June 24th 2015
Artists Reception : Saturday, June 13th, 7-11 pm
Art Thou Gallery proudly presents Opal Moon Fauna, an art exhibition featuring the work of four emerging Bay Area artists whose work celebrates bright colors, strong design, and fun, unexpected details.
Andreina Davila & Ytaelena Lopez are two Venezuelan artists that met in the Bay Area art scene and have joined forces to create the 2-person collaborative /ee.l.o.s/ (the phonetic pronunciation of hilos in Spanish, which means threads). After months of brainstorming and preparation, they debut their first series, Fauna, employing fine line work, dotting, and abstract color to portray an exquisite mixed-media menagerie.
Ryan Rebekah Erev merges a punk-feminist DIY mentality with earth-based spirituality to create art pieces that co-function as " tools to shift cultural healing towards the expression of liberation in all its complexities." Erev's works on paper accentuate delicate color washes, carefully executed brushstrokes, and a quirky surprise of googly eyes showing handcrafted skill and a playfulness that is a pleasure to indulge in.
Lindsay Evans Montgomery's paintings on canvas intuitively explore graphic line, shapes, and an wealth of colors in bright neon and opalescent pastels. Her series Truffle bubbles over with excess while the paintings in Aura take a surprisingly minimal turn. Sharp angles and acrylic-fashioned gemstones meet candy-coated rainbows and explode, sparkling into abstraction.
Opal Moon Fauna is an all-woman exhibition highlighting light-hearted fantastic worlds splashed with multicolored vibrant hues. Please join us for a reception in honor of this eclectic mix of work on Saturday, June 13th from 7-11pm. Light refreshments provided.
Opal Moon Fauna is curated by Chrysta Giffen.
