High Noon at the gallery not so sure about reality anymore

So fortunate to present our next exhibit by a great friend and mentor of the gallery. David Kimball Anderson @dkagooddog... NON-LINEAR TIME: THE PASSION OF IMPERMANENCE September 7 - October 18, 2020 Saturdays 12-4 7 days a week by appointment Artist Statement I register non-linear time in the same category as impermanence. To fully experience both requires a practice of surrender. Several months ago, as I began thinking about my opportunity to do a window with The Great Highway, I decided to install two older pieces: Fire and Vapor, both from 2013. These works arose during time I spent in high-altitude Colorado with a mindfulness teacher friend and remain timely for me today. Since then, world and personal events have made it ever more necessary that I work to achieve serenity via acceptance of impermanence. Vapor refers to the dissolution of ego and the translucent sensation one might enjoy when, if only for a moment, one is relieved of attachment to identity and ambition. Fire refers to the process of burning past karma or essentially taking a personal inventory and when wrong, promptly admitting it. Together, these pieces represent my desire to relinquish control, or my imagined sense of control. When I truly let go and fall deeply into the embrace of the Divine, I experience non-linear time. In addition to Vapor and Fire, works on paper will be installed in the gallery space. These works represent bodily and transcendental points of sensation as well as complementary notes on Vapor and Fire.

SATURDAY 12-5pm @the_single_fin_theory Print Sale - 50% of sales to benefit @youthuprising . I am greatful for all the artists that work with me here at the gallery. Without their trust and support the gallery would have been long gone. The artists support the gallery by putting in so much time and passion into creating work that speaks to our community and allowing me to exhibit their work. kevin @the_single_fin_theory , beyond letting me print his work, has been quietly su...pporting the gallery for the last few months by donating all his sales proceeds to the gallery. It has been a big help during these challenging times that are effecting all of us. This sale will continue to help the gallery right now for which I am grateful and I would like to pay it forward by donating 50% from this sale to Youth Uprising. Through their comprehensive services and core programming, they give East Oakland youth the opportunity to build positive relationships, develop new skills, and establish goals and future plans that will put them on a trajectory to success and self-sufficiency in adulthood. @ The Great Highway Gallery See more
