Jaki Katz: Art and Mind - Opening Reception - June 6th - 5-9pmArt & Mind by Jaki Katz
"We have art so that we shall not die from reality." This quote by Friedrich Nietzche inspired the images for Jaki Katz’s upcoming multimedia show, Art and Mind, opening June 6, at Art Source Gallery. Jaki transforms the horrors that haunt her into beautiful, thought provoking artwork. “This is not only essential for my own well being, but re-tells these troubling stories to the world in a much more palatable way,” Jaki explains. Art and Mind showcases Jaki’s dynamic storytelling, sense of humor, and vivid use of color and imaginative imagery in paintings, sculptures and mixed media.
