Art is LIfe.... Life is Art

 


Featured image: Adrift IV

“What strikes me is the fact that in our society, art has become something which is related only to objects and not to individuals, or to life. That art is something which is specialized or which is done by experts who are artists. But couldn't everyone's life become a work of art? Why should the lamp or the house be an art object, but not our life?”

― Michel Foucault


“Life is art. Art is life. I never separate it.” – Ai Weiwei.


"The object of art is not to reproduce reality, but to create a reality of the same intensity." - Alberto Giacometti.


Artists create their life, they give it form. Everyone should create their own lives and think it is art. Unfortunately, not many do. Christine Alfery

Light Has Dawned Accepted into Exhibition

 


Featured image: Light Has Dawned

I am thrilled and honored to have my work, "Light Has Dawned," selected for the exhibition at the Lexis Gallery at Trinity Cathedral in Sacramento, CA, running from October 2 to November 3, 2024. 

This exhibition delves into the profound theme from Genesis 1: "And God said, 'Let there be light.'" In a world where darkness often prevails, my piece seeks to interpret this divine call to light, inviting viewers to reflect on the transformative power of illumination. 

It is a privilege to contribute to this inspiring showcase which echoes the eternal promise of light overcoming darkness.

Subject

What is the subject that gets me excited to create? 

It's the relationship I have and I know others have to the harmonies and discords of the natural world.
