SUMMARY:Above & Beyond: 2nd Floor Resident Artists Exhibit 
DESCRIPTION:In this exhibition\, the work is not a destination\, but a point of departure. Above & Beyond brings together ten artists who inhabit the vital space where material reality gives way to something more profound. This collection is a study of transcendence: the act of rising above a medium’s physical properties and reaching beyond the visible to capture the essence of the human spirit. \nAcross these eleven distinct practices\, a shared language of transformation emerges. Whether through the textured weight of sculpture or the fluid energy of a painting\, these works function as “visual events” rather than static objects. They reject the silence of a flat surface\, choosing instead to occupy a landscape of rhythm\, light\, and depth. \nThe exhibition explores the constant tension between structure and instinct—the desire to build\, to order\, and to contain\, set against the impulse to surrender to the subconscious. By emphasizing the tactile and the sensory\, these works invite a “slow looking” that reveals the hidden layers of our shared existence. Above & Beyond is an invitation to move past the threshold of the material world and enter a sanctuary where the resilience of the maker meets the reflection of the observer. \nART Gallery at Canopy\n916 Springdale Rd\,\nBldg 2 Ste 101 \nHours: Friday 1-6PM Sat/Sun 1-4PM \nOpening Reception: Thursday\, February 19\, 7–9 p.m. \nMore Info and RSVP here \nAdmission: Free and open to the public \n  \n\n\n\n\nFeatured Artists:\nAnn Flemings\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKevin Bishop\nLauren Tarbel\nLeslie Kell\nLindsay Shillington\nLucy Macqueen\nNatasha Kanevski\nNeena Buxani\nPriscilla Lustig\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYasmin Youssef
