Our July artists communicate the lasting significance of human interactions without saying a word. Ric Savid (FL) emotionally connects viewer and subject through his black and white photography. An undeniable proximity is felt in the honest tranquility of Filipino natives as they are captured in astonishingly intimate detail. Karen Swyler (VT) invites viewers on an exploration of the delicate nuances of personal relationships as elegantly expressed in the subtleties of her ceramic work. The ceramic vessels are her attempt to preserve the quiet transitive interchanges that provide meaning in life. Our July artists communicate a shared emotional experience that is louder than words.
