The artwork of local artist Carolyn Hardy was shown in the FLOW exhibit on the Big Screen Plaza with ARTHOUSE.NYC in New York City on June 12.
ARTHOUSE.NYC works with Ideal Glass Studios at 9 West 8th Street in New York City. The reception for FLOW was held at Ideal Glass Studios and the exhibit was on display on digital screens in this location from June 8-22.
The jury for the FLOW exhibit included Ann Marie Richard, the director of Sotheby’s New York, and five other impressive leaders of the art world, including Peter Ibsen, Charlie Sebunya, Emily McElwreath, Dr. David M. Milch and Lara Eurdolian.
Carolyn’s original artwork that was selected for this show was entitled “The Edge of the Abyss.” Originally a 20”×18” Acrylic on Canvas painting, the image was blown up to 30 feet at Big Screen Plaza.
“The Edge of the Abyss” was created during one of Carolyn’s live painting performances at the restaurant Eclectic Love in Kingsville. The painting represents a quote slightly changed from the original quote by Graham McNeill, “When we step off the edge of the abyss one of two things will happen… we will fall… or we will learn to fly.”
Carolyn Hardy is an active member of the Leamington Arts Centre.
