“Plastic Pedals” & “Pentimento”

“Plastic Pedals” exhibition by Moises Mendoza explores the feeling of an approaching spring through a super saturated lens. Using the medium of acrylic on wood, his botanical abstractions are rendered with bright, fluorescent colors bound by a thread of warm yellow. The use of yellow has long been associated with happiness and optimism. Mendoza states, “this new series hopes to instill a small dose of joy for the everyday blues.”

“Pentimento” is a group exhibition representing twenty artists’ interpretations of this Italian term that refers to a visible trace of earlier painting beneath the final layer of paint sometimes revealed over time. In a broader sense it implies the changing of one intention to another and can give the viewer insights into the evolution and thought process involved in the making of a piece of art.

An opening reception for both shows will take place on the outdoor deck on March 26, 4pm – 7pm. The exhibition will run from Mar 18 to April 10, Friday 2PM – 7PM, Saturday and Sunday noon – 5PM.
