Agora Gallery with Alli Gerrish Exhibit
Meet Alli Gerrish
Alright, Alli thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you talk to us about a project that’s meant a lot to you?
As an artist, I am moved by the power of art to help people tap into a universal consciousness of the joys and fears we all share. This past year I was honored to participate in a group show at Agora Gallery in New York titled Outside the Box.
Giving Thanks, Art for the Community
In a world marked by the constant hustle and bustle of everyday life, we often forget to take a moment to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us. Art has the power to transform mundane spaces into vibrant landscapes of creativity, infusing life into our surroundings and bringing people together. When artists share their talents with the community, it not only beautifies our surroundings but also fosters a sense of unity and gratitude. In this article, we explore the importance of art for the community and how it fosters a spirit of giving thanks.
Words may fail us in the end, but art can speak to the part of us that has no words.
Alli Gerrish is a Colorado-based visual artist who creates paintings that straddle the space between abstract and symbolic representation. Her work draws upon narratives of human feelings, emotions, and energy, all of which she channels toward the transformative process of self-healing. Employing a diverse array of mediums, including acrylics, prints, mixed media, and voiceovers, Gerrish skillfully conveys her experiences within the context of society and culture, providing a glimpse into the collective wisdom that emerges when facing adversity.
