“Warmth” is the name of a new exhibit open during the month of March at Artworks Gallery in downtown Winston-Salem. The show is a combination of the work of two artists under a single theme: where comfort can be found. Whether it be in New York City, Havana, Osaka, or anywhere else in the world online or off, the human quest for warmth fosters connections and sparks interactions.
In addition to the work itself, certain pieces will have additional narration by the artists explaining the motivations behind their work.
“Art is…” by Elliot Strunk
“Sand” by Elliot Strunk
Elliot Strunk is a collage artist who uses found items in his work. His digital and traditional compositions highlight items of visual interest discarded once their original use has been exhausted or repurposed and infused with additional meaning. A throughline of his work is what we all consume in terms of food, time and information.
“The World is Yours”
Julian Silverman is a photographer from New York City who has recently relocated to Winston-Salem as an undergraduate student at Wake Forest University, where he is a Presidential Scholar in the arts. His work focuses on the beauty and human narratives that permeate everyday scenes.
This exhibit is free and open to the public.
