Yosemite Sierra Artists Launch Ground-Breaking Art Show


Yosemite Sierra Artists Launch Ground-Breaking Art Show

OAKHURST – Yosemite Sierra Artists (formerly Yosemite Western Artists) will be launching an exciting new all-women show. The first of its kind in the Mountain Area, Vision of Self will portray both the internal and external landscapes of women’s lives. Some of the images will be literal self-portraits; some will be imaginative representations of emotion, environment, and aspects of women’s daily lives.

This will also be the first art show that will debut exclusively online, since we’re still not able to gather in groups during Covid.

“What was so spectacular, was that the show received hundreds of entries from all over the world!” says co-curator, Wendy Denton. “We didn’t expect this kind of response.”

The Vision of Self show represents over 100 female artists from 10 countries. The significance of this work is even greater during this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, when artists are isolated and yearn for connection and outlets to share their work. Women artists want to be seen and heard.

Vision of Self is a virtual show which will debut March 1st, 2021 at YosemiteArts.com. The opening reception will be Friday, March 5, 2021, at 5:00 PM Pacific Time on Facebook Live at
http://facebook.com/groups/yosemitesierraartists.
