S.E.A is for emerging artists and established artists that want to get the attention of the gallery. This online exhibition allows artists to submit 3 pieces and have the potential to showcase in-person at the gallery (either on our window wall or during a group show) in a future exhibition. This is by discretion of the curator
Online-Exhibition Application
Refracted Worlds
In Refracted Worlds, photography and digital art converge to create a space where reality bends, light dances, and perception is continuously redefined. This exhibition is a look into an immersive universe where the boundaries between the physical and digital worlds blur; where the lens of the camera and the precision of digital manipulation open doors to alternate dimensions. Through the innovative use of photography and digital artwork, Refracted Worlds explores the transformative power of light, the fracturing of perception, and the imaginative potential that lies in the spaces between what is seen and what is felt.
