Contracommon presents "Feeling Big & Being Small" opening reception

eventdetail
Andew Sakamoto, Morgan Gage, Holly Cerna

Contracommon will present "Feeling Big & Being Small," a group show which explores differing approaches to the making of contemporary Landscape art.

Curated by Contracommon studio member Morgan Gage, "Feeling Big & Being Small" encourages viewers to reflect upon how diversity in image-creation lends credit to the power of individual introspection, which both contrasts and illuminates the feelings of smallness imparted by vast interconnected landscapes.

The exhibition will display artwork with the curatorial assertion that self-insertion (AKA the hand of the artist) is the future of the landscape genre - allowing both the artist and the viewer to reject environmental-separatism as they reflect upon a world in which their own unique interpretations are pivotal to impacting the Earth we live within.

"Feeling Big & Being Small" aims to highlight approaches to the landscape genre which explore assorted qualities of: daydreaming, automatism, situational emotion, temporal materiality, plein air meditations, and/or reimagined geographies.

The exhibition will be on view through February 27.
