Fireworks Art Exhibit at SIABC

I submitted some of my eye mandalas for this exhibit, taking a chance on an open minded juror. For me fireworks are about the patterns created in the sky, branching out from the center like the mandala patterns. Douglas La Tourette the curator accepted them and put together an interesting assemblage of work at the SIABC Gallery on 73 Wave Street. The show is up June 27 to August 3, 2015.

My favorite piece in the show is a small painting by Tiffany Porcu. The fireworks are painted after their glorious moment, when the leftovers are melting to the ground, looking like hair or multi-fingered hands. I looked up Tiffany Porcu but didn't find much besides her FB page which didn't have any other artwork. Hoping to see more of her paintings in Staten Island exhibits in the future.
