The Vision Board
Kopeikin Gallery is proud to present 鈥淭he Vision Board鈥 a group exhibition of mixed media artworks curated by Elizabeth Valdez.
In this very unique Mixed Media group exhibition, curator Elizabeth Valdez challenged the wide array of multi-disciplinary and critically acclaimed artists, to create personal 鈥淰ision Boards.鈥 Says Curator Valdez: 鈥淭he impetus for this show comes out of a desire to understand what artists are envisioning in regard to the future, (THE FUTURE IS NOW,) at this very unique moment in history.鈥 鈥淚 consider visualization to be a powerful tool, and perhaps, a first step in heading towards change鈥 continues Valdez.
Some questions this subject brings up are, what, at this moment, are we interested in changing? Are we still hopeful, or are our visions of the future 鈥渁pocalyptic鈥 in some ways? The beauty of this concept is that it can be so multifaceted, therefor appealing to many artists with diverse backgrounds and styles.
In choosing and contacting artists for this show, Ms. Valdez stressed that the artists were completely free to experiment; to either add to their existing body of work, or create something completely new, inspired solely by the theme. This theme can be as simple as a single color that inspires them, or as deep as they wished to delve into their psyche.
