Deer Lake Gallery is getting set to host a new exhibition.
Diffusion, a group exhibition featuring the work of Carolyn Kramer, Corey Jennifer Hardeman and Sean O’Flynn, opens Saturday, Sept. 10 and runs until Saturday, Oct. 1.
A press release notes that the exhibition represents “the subconscious dispersion of impressions and ideas” by the three artists.
“Through a radically singular approach that is well known in contemporary debate, all use references and ideas that are so integrated into the process of the work that they may escape those who do not take the time to explore how and why these images haunt you, like a good film, long after you’ve seen them,” the release says.
O’Flynn’s work is described as “an implosion of colour” that allows the viewer intimate access to emotions expressed in the work.
Kramer’s work, meanwhile, originates from microscopic photographs or sketches “that she extols into dramatic and serene works of singular beauty.”
Hardeman’s paintings are documented moments in time that are remnants of her experience with bereavement.
“They have a unique beauty of an almost transcendent quality,” the release says. “As the viewer receives the full impact of their celebration of life in its purest form, they will be embraced by their colour, textures and designs.”
An opening reception is set for Saturday, Sept. 10 from 2 to 4 p.m. An artist talk is also set for Saturday, Oct. 1 at noon.
Deer Lake Gallery is at 6584 Deer Lake Ave. and is open Tuesday to Saturday from noon to 4 p.m.
