Our next exhibition, opening August 9 from 6-9pm, features the work of the talented and whimsical Vic Yambao. Explore the depths of self-awareness at “Fish Brain,” an exhibition diving into the human experience through the lens of aquatic life. The exhibition is inspired by the instinctual prowess of fish—pattern recognition, shape, and form. Join us on August 9th from 6-9 PM to immerse yourself in the beauty and mystery of creatures that navigate our rivers, lakes, and tributaries, and discover how their world reflects our own.
A message from the artist: “Like art, fishing appeals to my solitary nature. Both demand deep focus and keen observation. Both require a blend of technical skill and the ability to improvise based on the moment. Both disciplines offer valuable lessons through repetition and mistakes. This exhibition serves as a merger of these two passions. Translating the world of fishing onto my canvas. The act of painting my catches becomes a meditative exploration, a way to preserve the memories and emotions associated with each trip. It’s a pursuit that mirrors the act of fishing itself – patiently waiting for inspiration to ‘bite’; then skillfully capturing it on the canvas. Fishing for inspiration by thinking like a fish.”
