“Perspectives” presents art focusing on the cultural identity and autobiographical storytelling by invited artists. These artist’ works reflect on our stories – our devotions, memories, childhood circumstances, displacement of vulnerable communities, environmental issues, loss and processing mourning.

Sailin’ On will be at Silvermine Gallery in New Canaan, CT from January 19th to February 15th
