"THE WAY WE SEE IT"
The Way We See It exhibit, featuring Chilliwack artists: Zidonja Ganert, Greg Laxton-
Ekberg & Vickie Legere. As artists we see the world through the eyes of wonder.
Consciously or unconsciously we see possibilities & potential – assessing the light,
composition, or shape & form; savoring the germ of an idea to be incorporated into a
future piece of visual art, be it a painting or photograph. We, as artists are free to explore
any medium or visual style to express our message to the world. The audience sees the
world from the artists’ perspective – yet still has the freedom to experience their own
interpretation & emotional response to the image displayed. We create art to say
‘something’ about what we feel about the subject – not just to make a pretty picture.
O’Connor Group Art Gallery – July 4 to August 3, 2019 Free and open to the public.
Gallery Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 12:00 - 5:00 pm
