The Future Is Now touches on themes that are part sci-fi, part futurism, and part technological. Each distinctive in their rendering of figure and landscape, these artists collectively create an existence that is well within the realm of probability. World culture, global technology, and the unknown meld in an existence that we are simultaneously excited by and cautious of, now that the pandemic is over and a new normal is being established.
Alec Huxley is a painter based in San Francisco. His work, primarily representational, is filled with contrast. Simultaneously stark and colorful, it focuses on landscapes of the American West Coast. Cinematic scenes serve as imperfect records of place, time and architecture for space travellers and wild animals. A self taught artist, his background includes studies in business, graphic design, photography, as well as a career in printing before committing to fine art full-time.
Felicia Ann is an artist, designer, and gallerist based in Oakland CA. She blends her Southeast-Asian heritage, love of lore and mythology, together with her enthusiasm for astronomy, science and technology. Her art is expressed in ethereal portraits, celestial objects and graphic shapes that represent an exploration of human identity and our place and time in the universe.
Paul Lewin has found joy in the process of creating art since he was a child in Kingston, Jamaica. His paintings, which he likens to the ancient art of storytelling, are inspired by nature, science, ancestors, and dreams. The resulting visions include trees, animals, insects and foliage intertwining with human figures to represent the transfer of energy and interconnectedness to the Earth. The figures symbolize Lewin's ancient, future, and inter-dimensional ancestors from Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora. He is currently based in Miami, Florida.
The Future Is Now will be on exhibit from August 26 through September 24, 2023 at Luna Rienne Gallery.
