Symmetry: a group exhibit

2023

East Point

We invite you to explore "Symmetry", through our unique artworks. Our exhibition features symmetrical compositions, patterns, designs, and the idea of symmetry in abstract and conceptual ways.

We welcome you to the experience of symmetry in art, design, and everyday life, particularly within systems that shape our world. We will explore the ways in which symmetry can be used to create balance, harmony, and visual representation.

It is our hope that on this journey of exploration, collectively, we’ll think more consciously about the role of symmetry in shaping our visual perception and experience .​

May we all appreciate the powerful impact of symmetry, and recognize the ways in which this fundamental concept shapes our understanding of the world around us.

  • Mobile, AL

    In seventh grade, Taz began to seriously pursue painting, inspired by an art teacher in school, as well as the raw and vibrant art found in her community during Mardi Gras and in everyday life.

    Her art reflects the lively and vivid influences of her environment as a growing adult from Mobile, Alabama.

    Taz strives to imbue her work with power and punch, incorporating clean, sharp, and accurate line work.

    This influence has led her to pursue both tattooing and painting with the same intent, though Taz finds painting to be a more personal, intimate, and expressive medium.

    Looking to the future, Taz aspires to become an international artist, traveling the world to create tattoos, paintings, and murals while making new connections and friends.

  • Denver, CO

    Simone Taylor is a fine artist and jeweler who currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia. Although she was born in Atlanta, she moved to Denver, Colorado at the young age of one. In high school, Simone was fortunate to have Ron Hicks, a well-known visual artist in Denver, as her mentor. He trained and educated her in the arts.

    Simone draws inspiration from the idea of the female form as blissful supreme deities, and her work seeks to inspire and empower women. Her work is influenced by the menhdi tradition, utilizing distinct lines and elaborate patterns to connect her artistic disciplines and blend influences from one medium to the next.

    As a leading figure in the New Renaissance movement, Matthew paints and sells his work out of his Boston studio unapologetically named 'The Dungeon.'
