SUMMARY:Essence Exhibit\, Athenaeum Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Eclosion from my Baroque series was selected for the Essence exhibit at the Athenaeum Gallery\, Alexandria\, VA. \nThis exhibition showcases the diverse ways in which DMV artists have captured a person’s (or persons’) essence—the physical and intangible characteristics that define us. \nI am honored to be part of this highly competitive exhibit among the 50 artists selected from almost 500 submissions. \nExhibit Duration: \nJuly 3 – August 10\, 2025 \nClosing Reception: \nAugust 10\, 2–4 pm \nGallery Hours: \nThe gallery is open Thursday through Sunday\, from noon to four each day. \n  \nAbout Eclosion: \nOne of my Braoque series\, I created this painting to explore the concept of emergence amidst falling. The figure within it represents a state of transition. Forms extending from the figure’s back suggest a development\, a breaking free. I positioned the figure in a recline\, a posture often associated with rest or contemplation\, but here\, it indicates the moment of change itself. \nThe environment around the figure is constructed with geometric planes and lines. I used these elements to define the space and provide a structure that both contains and allows for the unfolding event. The color variations within these planes and on the emerging forms indicate shifts in light and atmosphere. Through this work\, I aimed to present a visual representation of the internal and external processes involved in a significant transformation. \n  \n
