More About the Exhibition:
Complimentary entry and located in the borough of New Hope, PA, the Creative Continuum Invitational Exhibition specifically celebrates the creative spark that motivates an artist throughout life and features twelve life-long art-makers and their work. Art is a tool for sharing, helping, guiding and revealing unconscious motivation in the hands of teachers who use metaphor, theme and storytelling practices as well as technique and formal elements, contributing to the “creative continuum”. The dozen artists participating in this exhibition find an anchor in art. Recent sculptural works by Guy Ciarcia, have mostly been created during the past 20 months of Covid isolation and are the centerpiece for painting, photography and assemblage works by like-minded artists.
