Tree of Life



Invitational Artist Event

 

Art Exhibit & Sale at River's Edge Apalachicola

 

Opening Reception - October 11, 2024 - 4 to 7 p.m.

 

Show dates: October 11 - November 15, 2024

 

The gallery at River's Edge Apalachicola will be hosting our next artist show "The Tree of Life".

In addition to our current gallery artists, we are inviting artists from the North Florida area to participate.

This event will be a showcase of the varied interpretations that the Tree of Life has signified to many different cultures over the centuries. The Tree of Life continues to be a powerful symbol in art, particularly religious art. In science it is often used as a metaphor for the connection between the diversity of all life on Earth.

We are asking artists to create work that represents the theme “The Tree of Life”.

Some of the avenues of interpretation could be scientific, religious, cultural, philosophical, spiritual, magical or mythological.

Ideas to stimulate your creativity….

  • The fertility of Life
  • Balance and Healing
  • Peace and Love
  • Life and Death
  • The Evolution of Life
  • The Circulatory System originating and returning to the Heart
  • Rebirth
  • Interconnectedness
  • Strength
  • Immortality
  • Connection to Nature and Mother Earth
  • Connection to the Afterlife
  • Ancestral Roots – We are all related

We leave the creation up to the artist! This should be a fun and intellectually stimulating show.
