EXHIBIT September 16 – January

While modern art often dazzles with bold colors and dramatic conflicts, these pieces offer a refreshing contrast. This exhibition showcases prints and ceramics that, though modest in size and subdued in palette, invite deep reflection and calm.

Rather than commanding immediate attention with striking elements, these artworks encourage a more contemplative approach. Their subtlety fosters a tranquil viewing experience, allowing for a pause from the fast-paced visual noise of everyday life. Engaging with these pieces is akin to a meditative practice, where gentle beauty and quiet details offer a serene respite.

“Some Pieces Whisper” serves as a reminder of the power of simplicity and the profound impact of understated art, providing a peaceful alternative to more sensational stimuli.

By embracing these gentle works, viewers can find solace and introspection in their subtle, yet powerful, presence.
