The Artists Co-Op in Long Beach announces the opening of “Everything Leads to Here”, a solo exhibition of Leah Shane Dixon. The show opens on July 20 and runs through August 4. “Everything Leads to Here” brings together a dynamic collection of abstract paintings and panoramic photography. The exhibition explores two aspects of Shane’s artistic practice: delivering a transcendental experience via photography and presenting the materiality of paint as a medium for both collage and sculpture. The paint-based pieces are vibrant, textured works that evoke shifting visual scales: from vast and epic, to tiny and microscopic. Shane’s painting process uses paint as a collage medium, building up conglomerations of freestanding paint in and of itself. Shane’s “Inception Pano” photographs bend our everyday reality into a picture plane in which we are looking at the world right-side up and upside down BOTH AT ONCE, prompting the viewer to look at the world around them in a new way! Join us for the opening reception on July 20, where attendees will have the opportunity to meet the artist and see the debut of these new works. Refreshments will be provided.
