Upcoming exhibition - Goddess: Origins of Wonder
On View August 1 - September 14, 2025
First Friday Reception & Opening Friday, August 1, 5-7pm

Curated by Niva Dorell, GODDESS: Origins of Wonder explores creation in its most sacred form—the act of bringing something new into existence, whether it be life, art, or transformation. In this exhibition, the word “goddess” means not a mythical figure but a living presence—a maker of worlds, a bearer of vision, a powerful deity guardian that shapes, dreams, and manifests. Through a diverse collection of works, Origins of Wonder honors the unseen labor of making, the intuitive force behind inspiration, and the divine connection between creator and creation. Collectively, it aims to be a tribute to the origins of all things: the wonder born from the divine femme that resides in all of us, an energy to be honored, revered, and treated with ultimate respect. More information
