SUMMARY:Samantha Spalti Reception - Kinetic Ambit
DESCRIPTION:Kinetic Ambit opens Oct. 25 and runs through Dec. 6. We hope you’ll join us at the opening reception on Saturday\, October 25 from 2 – 4 p.m. to meet artist (and gallery director) Samantha Spalti. This show\, which is a revisited version of the exhibit that she first shared at Leland Cultural Center last year\, is an exploration. Samantha has created a universe of orbs in undefined spaces\, which she explains are her search to find her place in the world. A pair of self-portraits reflect where she is in the process. Within the show there is a definite shift of color and mood in the explorative orbs and horizons. We hope you’ll mark your calendar for this insightful exhibition and reception. Light hors d’oeuvres\, sweets\, and other refreshments will be served. The public is invited to attend at no charge. Reservations are not needed.
