Cambria Center for the Arts is proud to present “Bird’s Eye View: The Architectural Landscapes of the Central Coast. The featured artist is resident Tigg Morales. Tigg’s paintings capture various views across San Luis Obispo County, merging natural and architectural elements that cannot be seen from street level. She shares her unique perspective of our coastal community by painting recognizable locations with a twist. While this is a non-juried show, all participating artists including Tigg, are eligible for consideration by select community members to receive award ribbons. The exhibit opens on March 1 and will run through April 28 with Artist’s reception on March 2nd from 4:30 to 6 pm.
With a retro nod to the 50s fascination with outer space, we asked artists to tap into their personal “outer limits” for this unusual exhibit. We prompted artists to draw on their childhood memories of such TV shows as “The Outer Limits” and the “Twilight Zone.” Most importantly, we ask artists to question their own personal “outer limits” as creators in this new world where, for example, artificial intelligence is currently challenging our perception of creativity. Regardless of the inspiration, the purpose of this exhibit is to play with the edge and to push the limits and test the outer boundaries.Reception: Sunday, April 7th from 2-4 pm
