SUMMARY:"From the Earth\, We Rise" Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join a celebration of the opening of “From the Earth\, We Rise” at The National Old City Apartments. \n“From the Earth\, We Rise” is an exploration of movement and surrender in human nature’s purest form. It showcases the work of artists Kimberly Stemler and Nancy Gordon\, striving to balance their expression of inspired nostalgia with their colorful brushstrokes. Stemler’s investigative nature draws upon a deeper understanding of connection with her own ancestry\, questioning one’s own identity. Gordon continuously shows a vibrant enthusiasm to break away from the bounds of realism\, and delve deeper into the potential of what abstraction can be. \nWith the work of these two artists\, this exhibition celebrates the ever-changing growth of both body and soul.
