Please join us Wednesday, September 19, from 6-8PM , for the exhibition opening and to meet with the artist.
In the exhibition, Zofia Bogusz presents a series of paintings based around the artist's relationship with the ocean. It's the (symbolic) idea of becoming tranquil in the uncontrollable, dominating power of this immense body of water. It's about letting go of sadness and fear.
Each painting features a highly rendered female figure, asserting her individual strengths against vividbackgrounds and elements. The imagery varies from playful to nautical offering a glimpse into a unique reality. The mediums used are oil paint, graphite and colored pencils on hand-cut wood. Prints of the work will also be available for sale during the opening reception.
Zofia Bogusz, a Poland native, is a New York City based artist. She received a BFA from the School of Visual Arts,and currently exhibits her work nationally. Zofia has had the honor to show her work at the Jazz for Peace art and music benefit at the New York Historical Society.
