Unlike A Virgin

The Pollinator Art Space is pleased to announce the group exhibition UNLIKE A VIRGIN. The included artists are advocates for the earth through their practices in repurposing found or discarded objects and elements. These artists are not only creators, but citizens who pay attention to consumption, and the limits of recycling. Their curiosity about how something old can become something intriguing, novel and perhaps beautiful creates a dialogue for the viewers through their imaginative pieces. During this exhibit Earth Day will be celebrated, yet the conversation around recycling is no longer in vogue. In exploration for this exhibit one theme that is a constant thread is a sense of nostalgia for what once was. These artists cherish memories, question their place in this world, and ponder the residue of lingering thoughts through materials they choose, and the cast shapes they leave behind. How can artists bring attention to the importance of making meaningful changes to daily habits? We invite you to reconsider your relationship with consumption, and consumerism during this powerful exhibit.
