Earth to Sky: The Art of Barbara S. Scott and David Holland

This exhibition is the story and celebration of Barbara Scott and David Holland and their thirty-year friendship as artists, supporting and encouraging each other as they developed their unique artistic voices.

"Wood seems such a common material, but it like us, has the capacity for transformation into wholly new forms of beauty and meaning beyond the physical." - Barbara S. Scott

Scott has found wood to be the perfect sculptural material to express the power of the human spirit. Wood, like people, has the capacity for transformation into new forms of beauty and meaning beyond the physical.

"I relish every moment of time I spend observing and photographing storms, and then I use my photographs to capture in oil paintings their timeless beauty and undeniable power." - David Holland

Holland watches the sky and captures clouds. Oklahoma's storms fascinate him. He paints them from images he curates from thousands of photographs. He thinks of each of his paintings as portraits of unique individuals, capturing that moment in time where each reveals their most powerful presence and their most stunning beauty.

Across Spaces

This exhibition explores the profound significance of the spaces that exist between moments, places, identities, and transitions.

Featuring the art of Irmgard Geul & Farooq Karim, Across Spaces invites viewers to explore the energy and intention that thrive in these spaces of transition.

Impression

Impression, by Marissa Raglin, explores a mother’s complex role and celebrates women. Raglin creates ethereal, whimsical collages compiled from images "rescued from thrift stores, half-priced book stores, and estate sales". Vividly pigmented artwork contrasts with blank spaces, creating room for conversation. Her pieces evoke feelings of maternal love, as well as questions about the duality of motherhood as both personal and communal.
