Deadline: 10/15! I am curating a virtual show "Flux -Vita Mutata- for Sculptors Alliance in November10/9/2020 “Flux -Vita Mutata- a virtual group exhibition I’m curating for @sculptors.alliance . Please apply and share your artistic journey! http://www.sculptorsalliance.org/open-call Curator Natsuki Takauji proposes that we explore “How is the global pandemic changing our lives.” “FLUX : Vita Mutata” aims to explore the ways in which artists work and question old approaches as they develop new ones. The exhibition will be presented online due to conditions brought on by COVID-19, which has put in-person exhibitions temporarily on hold. “FLUX : Vita Mutata” aims to uncover the processes participants may have newly invented and/or rediscovered during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants (individuals or teams are welcome) are encouraged to submit works made before the pandemic period and works made during the pandemic period. The virtual exhibition will focus on the processes that expose the artists’ transition from pre-pandemic through the lockdown and beyond.  TWO STRONG PeepShow Space 37 North 15th Street (corner of Gem Street) in Williamsburg 11222 Featuring: Natsuki Takauji www.natsukitakauji.com @natsukiuji Zhen Guo www.zhenguoart.com @zhenguoart curated by: William Norton @norton_william www.nortonart.net TWO STRONG PeepShow Space (a pop up) Running through Sunday November 1 37 North 15th Street Williamsburg Brooklyn 11222 On the Gem Street Side The exhibition will be able to be viewed from the street Thursdays and Fridays from 12-6 pm. Saturdays and Sundays the gallery will be open to accept small groups of people at a time from 12-6 pm & small tours can be given on demand by contacting Norton WR Why Art now ? Amid the pandemic, political turmoil and demand for racial justice and human rights, why Art now ? Art is a transcending experience, especially needed now, when our mundane lives are abnormally constricted and the dignity of people in our communities are compromised. The exhibition is a collaborative project by four NYC-based fellow artists, from four different countries, who have gathered together with a purpose to create a sanctuary for souls, in the beautiful community garden; an offering to relax, re-energize and take a short sweet break from feeling weighed down by life. The title “Encircle” comes from the idea to draw an imaginary circle around the viewer, circumscribing a space and a time for enjoyment and care for each other. This exhibit is to welcome the community as the garden reopens in the beginning of fall. “Becoming” and “Cosmos” by Shantel Rose Miller “Conceptus et” by Haksul Lee “I write you a flower” by Bruna D’Alessandro “Confession” by Natsuki Takauji A collaborative project by 4 NYC-based artists from 4 different countries, gathered together with a purpose to create a sanctuary for souls in the beautiful community garden. Artport residency program was prematurely was supposed to complete on April 1st, but it ended in the middle of March due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We brought the sculpture back to our studio and started working on it recently... Fortunately, it was selected to the juried virtual exhibition "Mother Tongue/Language" by The Immigrant Artist Biennial in October 2020. Looking forward to finally complete the sculpture with nearly 200 people's handwritten names and audio! More info: https://www.theimmigrantartistbiennial.com/upcoming-programming-2020
