Geometric Landscapes
Stephanie Gonzalez
September 10 - September 20, 2024
Reception: September 13, 5-7pm
Strata Gallery announces “Geometric Landscapes,” a solo exhibition by Emerging Artist Stephanie Gonzalez. The exhibition opens September 10th and runs through September 20th, with a special reception scheduled for September 13th from 5-7pm.
The influence of these works comes from the metaphysical, quantum, and spiritual realms. Stephanie uses isolation and self-reflection to come up with this subject matter. Her inspiration comes from the practice of meditation and the natural and spiritual world. She intends to capture unseen energies in the work and create an imagined landscape of the energy world. By channeling her meditative experience, her process is like decoding a spiritual language derived from the subconscious mind.
Stephanie Gonzalez stated, “I am excited to share my works with this community. I feel a deep connection with Santa Fe and its beautiful landscapes. My work is all about perspective and connection. I’m using iridescent paint which requires the viewer to get closer and look at the work from different angles for its true nature to be revealed. With these pieces, I’m encouraging others to question their perceptions and reconsider what a landscape can be.”
Stephanie Gonzalez received her MFA in Painting from Houston Christian University. Her work has been exhibited in California, Texas, Korea, and Santa Fe. This is her first solo show in New Mexico.
Strata Gallery is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday – Saturday. For more information about Strata Gallery, the current exhibit, and the future schedule of events, please visit the Strata Gallery website and Instagram.
