In the realm of visual art, composition is the strategic arrangement of shapes, forms, and colors to create harmony and balance within a work. These fundamental elements are the building blocks that artists use to guide the viewer’s eye, evoke emotions, and convey meaning. The exploration of composition can be both precise and playful, allowing artists to experiment with perspective, color, and form. Whether through the geometric precision of Cubism or the playful abstraction of modern art, composition remains at the core of artistic expression, transcending cultural and temporal boundaries.

Composition is more than a technical framework; it is an exploration of perception itself. Each shape, form, and color invites the viewer to engage in a dialogue, challenging the boundaries between reality and abstraction. This interplay transforms the canvas into a space where imagination and interpretation converge, urging us to reconsider our own perceptions of the world. As artists deconstruct and reassemble these elements, they redefine not only the visual experience but also the emotional resonance of the artwork, inviting us to see beyond the surface and connect with the deeper essence of creativity.


These works, along with others in the exhibition, demonstrate how composition serves as a universal language in art, allowing for endless exploration and reinterpretation across different styles and eras.

Opening reception October 17, 2024 5:30-7:30pm. Registration requested. All welcome.
