| Stilled |
Zeitgeist is pleased to present new paintings by Sara La. Her latest body of work, Stilled, continues in the narrative, story-telling vein of her “Golden Lily” series of 2005. Personal iconography (strange and unsettling) and familiar elements are combined in an effort to explore meaning and relationships close to the artist and at the same time, establish a dialogue to tap into the personal experience of the viewer. The figures in the new canvases are segmented, rearranged, and expose themselves to show interior workings and states of being. According to the artist, these are images and scenarios, “that are understood emotionally, but rationally cannot be explained,” and through the paintings she hopes to establish a connection with viewers that goes beyond language.
As a stalwart of the independent artist scene in Nashville, many may remember her work from the Illuminate show and the Gambit exhibition series in addition to her other Zeitgeist appearances.
Zeitgeist artists Brady Haston, Hans + Gieves, and Lain York will also show new work.
Gallery hours are 11AM to 5PM Tuesday through Saturday. For more information please call Janice Zeitlin at 615-256-4805. |
