The Lens Through Which We See
Visionary Art Collective is thrilled to announce its first in-person exhibition in NYC, The Lens Through Which We See, featuring the work of six contemporary landscape painters: Bri Custer, Colleen Gleason Shull, Julie Avisar, Ekaterina Popova, Amanda Hawkins and Sarah Boyle. Each artist captures the beauty of the natural world while conveying a deeper truth, filtering what she observes through emotion and memory. The resulting paintings are both a celebration of the land and of each artist’s interiority, providing a locus for the interplay of perceived reality and personal understanding. While deeply tied to a physical place, the work is transcendent, gesturing beyond what is seen to what is felt; through particular attention to each scene and what it evokes, the artists meld the observable universe with individual experience.
Artwork from The Lens Through Which We See will be available for private viewings at 183 Lorraine St in Brooklyn, NY from April 29 - May 21, 2023.
Opening Reception: Thursday, April 20, 6pm-8pm
