Mendings and Marvels
June 14 - July 12
ARC Gallery, 1246 Folsom Street, San Francisco
OPENING RECEPTION
Saturday, June 14, 7:00-9:00 PM
Mendings & Marvels' theme not only centers around the reuse/repurposing of materials and the reimagining of older artwork, but also includes themes around mending — whether literal, spiritual, or reacting to the present moment.
Artists often reflect their ability to mend and their desire to remake their emotions, experiences, and our world into the artworks they create. Mending or remaking ideas or objects also imbues them with new life. It’s a mystical, alchemical, and sometimes prescient process that has far-reaching results.
NCWCA is proud to present NCWCA Member artwork in various media that interprets the idea of mending, reusing, reimagining, and responding to the present moment. Artworks range from the repurposing of found objects, including artworks about the environment or recycling, to conceptual works exploring the remaking of ideas and emotions, mendings of the mind and planet, and marvels of revelation.
