“DIMINUENDO”
Sara Ricer, visual artist and musician, well-known for her ceramic creations under her business Mountains and Clouds, attempts to emanate a feeling and idea that we are part of something much, much bigger than our individual selves. She says, “Art is my way of acknowledging human existence within the delicate balance of nature.”
In this exhibit, "Diminuendo," we see just that with Sara's use of both ceramic scultpture and painting. The title’s meaning, to decrease in (sound) volume, can be attributed to Sara’s training as an orchestral musician, but is also in reference to the decline in the presence of the songs and voices of the birds native to Hawai’i’s shrinking forests. Despite the loss, there is still joy to be found in what remains, and in the stories and memories of birds who have lived here in the past.
“I have been turning back toward creative and visual arts more and more as I grow older, and I’ve never met a medium I didn’t like.”
OPENING RECEPTION: 8/3
Join us for the Opening Reception for Sara’s newest collection of work, Diminuendo on Saturday, August 3rd, from 11am - 1pm. You will have the opportunity to meet Sara and gain insight on her journey and artistic process. Light Refreshments will be served. This is a FREE event, but RSVP's are appreciated.
