Art Opening Reception – A Delicate Balance – Sharon Whitham

Please join us at El Tupinamba for the Opening Reception of A Delicate Balance – Monotypes and Mixed Media by artist Sharon Whitham. Live music with Steven Jaymes and Geoff Wadsworth. Wine, food and art! The show runs through April 26.

A Delicate Balance explores the fragile harmony between humanity and nature through vessels and botanical forms. Vessels, both literal and symbolic, serve as carriers of experience, memory, and change, while botanical elements reflect cycles of growth, impermanence, and renewal. Through monotype and collage techniques, these works capture the tension between stillness and movement, containment and release, endurance and fragility.

In a world shaped by environmental shifts and personal transformations, A Delicate Balance invites viewers to reflect on what we hold, what we let go of, and how we navigate the fleeting yet profound moments of existence. The vessels in these works carry life, bounty, hope and harmony. In these difficult times in our outer world, we need to keep our vessels full – to sustain us,  give to others and persevere.
