“Ashawagh” is the Native American work meaning “place where two roads come together.” Connected by geography and a shared consciousness, this group of renowned artists taps a unique artistic perspective. The six offer fresh ways of viewing the world to communicate and illuminate via paint, clay, bead and other mediums.
The work and the artists have sinevitably been shaped by their lives and experiences in the 20th and 21st century United States. It is a product of breaking barriers, being firsts and embracing the double consciousness that artists, who seek to tap the vein of creativity to express experience, reality, and meaning through visual works, aspire to share with the world.
The show will run through July 20 at Ashawagh Hall, 780 Springs Fireplace Road, East Hampton. Gallery hours are from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and a reception will be held on Tuesday, July 19 from 5 to 7 p.m.
