Shonto Begay "Shonto Moon"

July 7, 2023 Kay Yoo

Show through the end of July

The glow of the sacred mountain. The light she sits with, she holds like a crown.

All the places, the people and events are touched by the light.

These are spaces I am inspired by. These are my muses. The lines in every painting are the syllables of prayers and chants.

Summer Doss "Return: Moments of Homecoming in the Desert Southwest"

July 29, 2022 Kay Yoo

Show through the end of August

Summer Doss is a fine artist, working primarily in oils, whose work features Southwestern landscapes. By drawing viewers into the grandeur of the Western landscape, or by reminding viewers of their own moments in nature, Summer hopes that her art can serve as a point of return to the unfathomable interconnectedness between us all.

Through her work, Summer seeks to confront the human illusion of control and wants to facilitate inner dialogues surrounding our innate connection to nature, fear, ego, and mortality. She hopes to lead viewers to wonder if our inescapable humanity can become a force for earnest connection with ourselves and the world around us.

Michele Naylor "Unexpected Places"

February 13, 2022 Kay Yoo

“I start each painting by choosing a color palette. From there it’s anything goes.

I know there will be texture, either real or implied, and maybe a shape of an actual object, but I never set out to paint a certain image. I just play – I add, subtract, think, squint, step back, get closer, leave the room, come back later…it all works out in the end.”

Sandy Applegate "Birds and Branches"

December 3, 2021 Kay Yoo

Show through February 14th, 2022

“I am fascinated by birds as shapes. Every bird is basically the same, but each type is so different and varied. They are symbols of freedom, character and intelligence. The same is true for the great variety of trees. I use them as shapes in my stylized paintings. The lines correspond to the rings used to date the ages of trees. I love to create colorful textured backgrounds for these paintings, then I populate them with my stylized birds and trees to create a whole.”
