Exhibition Overview:

“Solstice Light” is an upcoming group visual art exhibition that invites the exploration of the power and beauty of the summer solstice—the longest day of the year and the moment when sunlight reaches its peak. Through an array of artistic mediums, this exhibition will focus on the vibrant colors of summer, the dynamic relationship between the sun, nature, and shamanic experiences of harnessing the power of the sun. Whether through the vivid imagery of blooming landscapes, the radiant hues of a setting sun, or the interplay of light and shadow, the works will celebrate the season of abundance, growth, vitality and strength.

This exhibition offers a platform for artists to interpret the solstice through their unique artistic lens in a wide variety of visual mediums, creating an immersive experience for visitors to reflect on the energy and symbolism of this celestial event.
