About this Event

Raven, Raven
Joyce Yamada
October 15 - November 1, 2024
Reception: October 18, 5-7pm

Strata Gallery presents an Established Member solo exhibition, “Raven, Raven” by New York City based artist Joyce Yamada. The exhibition opens October 15 with a special reception on October 18 from 5-7pm.

Joyce Yamada’s show features paintings, the dominant two of which are “Raven, Raven”and “Coywolf”. Both paintings are inspired by Santa Fe’s animals and landscape, executed in oil on linen. Also featured are multiple paintings from her long-running series, “The Accidental Cloud”, an experimental counterpoint to her more conceptual work.

Joyce Yamada stated, “It is such a pleasure to be part of Strata Gallery; I have always loved Santa Fe. My paintings reflect my interest in ecology, animals, nature, and the relationship of humans to the natural world. For much of my life I was painting in protest; now that the damage we are doing to the environment is so clear—think of the violence of our current weather and the increasing number of endangered animals--I am painting in celebration of Earth’s glories.”

Strata Gallery is open from 11 am to 5 pm Tuesday – Saturday. For more information about Strata Gallery, the current exhibit, and the future schedule of events, please visit the Strata Gallery website and Instagram.
