Creative Attention: Art and Community Restoration
Creative Attention: Art and Community Restoration will feature the work of 18 artists from the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. The exhibition will showcase alternatives to our chaotic world of stress and anxiety, through practices of mending, healing, restoration, belonging, sustainability, and resiliency.
Some of the work that will be included in the exhibition looks inward鈥攁ddressing past personal struggles with illness, addiction, and loss. Other artists turn their attention outward to connect with those who are suffering and to find solidarity in our shared adversity. Universally, what begins in the studio alters the life of the artist, who in turn brings that change to the world.
The exhibition will feature several site-specific installations, including: a wall painting by Paz de la Calzada featuring plants collected in nearby City of Palo Alto Community Gardens; a site-specific collection of Flowers for Sick People, a multimedia art and health project by Tucker Nichols; an immersive installation by Wes Bruce exploring the meditative and healing properties of water; and Expanding Space Project, a project that combines meditation, photography, and social practice by Johnna Arnold.
