Fundamentally Human

Solo exhibition by Helena Celewicz

Opens June 12th at Art City

The portraits featured in Fundamentally Human are linked by their focus on this inner life, using color and pose to reveal the tension between opposing emotional states. Together, they frame contradiction as a shared human condition. Fundamentally Human offers a glimpse into the hidden self we all carry, and encourages the viewers to contemplate and celebrate the intricacy of their own interior world.

Rising Waters, Mythical Ships

Solo Installation by Carol Schrader

Opens June 12th at Art City

Carol Schrader’s Rising Waters, Mythical Ships invites viewers into a lush, layered world where mythology, memory, and contemporary life drift together on vibrant seas. Whimsical ships sail through colorful waves alongside chimera, creating a dreamlike menagerie that feels both playful and deeply symbolic. Through cyanotype, stitching, painting, and fiber-based sculpture, the artist transforms sun, water, fabric, and thread into immersive spaces charged with ritual, presence, and transformation.
