Recepton for artist Shea Snow and the Pre-Boomer
Bloomers
Place: South Arkansas Arts Center
Date: 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday More information: Shea Snow, Memphis, Tennessee – Process Art, Merkle and Price Galleries Snow’s art focuses on processes that render results of happiness and contentment to those who enjoy them by exploring alternative processes and converting them into imaginative ways for making visual art. “This exploration balances my creative passion and ultimately restores it from years of client-based shared authorships endured under the commands of commercial art where the processes of making mass produced art can have a tendency to be restraining and have a factory-like production line for its artists,” Snow said. “With a preconceived goal of the end product and being more concerned on achieving results of mass consumerism, this type of art has less concern for the artists’ freedom in the process of creating such art.” SAAC PreBoomer Bloomers, Lobby Gallery Exhibit November 3 to the 29.
