SUMMARY:Gallery Opening: The Ephemeral Waltz of the Butterfly
DESCRIPTION:The Ephemeral Waltz of the Butterfly\nBy Gina Lucia\nOn view: Mar 21 – Apr 18\nOpening: Sat\, Mar 21 | 3-5pm\n\nExhibition statement:\nOur bodies by construction imitate objects in nature that keep us alive. However\, we are as ephemeral as the leaves on a tree and as we evolve\, change form and respond to environmental changes\, we shed our leaves\, our skin and transform\, wither and die. The very essence of our existence is as ephemeral as our world\, our planet and all of the living things in the eco-system. Human kind is a part of the earth as are all of the creatures\, insects\, birds\, plants and other organic matter. Though we believe that we matter more than all of other living matter\, human kind is nothing more than organic matter. Organic matter resembling all other life forms: the roots of trees resemble our lungs\, like waterways and estuaries flow for plant life and other life to thrive. Small ventricles of life that expand and contract bring air\, food and water to our bodies and nourish our organs. As larvae transform into caterpillars and caterpillars into butterflies and the seasons transform into one another there is a rebirth of matter and a transformation that imitates nature and nature imitates man\, all fragile\, beautiful and ephemeral; such is the ephemeral waltz of the butterfly \nAbout the artist:\nLucia’s mixed media collage work fuses commercial and fine art techniques. Hand drawn sketches are combined with found objects\, photography\, hand-rendered typography and presented in a thought-provoking photomontage. Inspired by music\, Surrealism and the Freudian concept of free association\, personal experiences and heartbreak\, everyday encounters with objects people and places\, the current social and political climate\, her collages are spontaneous juxtapositions of unlikely things. She incorporates elements of pop culture; viscera; nature; animals; insects; and other eclectic ephemera into her work. The harmonious commingling of both digital technology and fine art techniques has allowed her to redefine and refine her art.\nWebsite

SUMMARY:Gallery Opening: Hands Talk
DESCRIPTION:Hands Talk\nBy Debbie Gibbs\nOn view: Jan 10 – Feb 7\nOpening: Sat\, Jan 10 | 3-5pm\n\nExhibition statement:\nHands are powerful communicators. This mixed media exhibition—created with paper and acrylic on stretched canvas—explores the many ways hands express\, connect\, and reveal. From the most direct form of communication\, sign language\, to symbolic gestures\, hands speak volumes. Hands in handcuffs underscore both the literal and symbolic restriction of freedom. The racially diverse hands depicted throughout the work highlight the beauty diversity brings to our world\, as well as the complexity it adds to communication and connection. Created during a time when the rights and freedoms of many are being limited\, this exhibition strives to raise awareness and inspire positive\, productive\, multicultural engagement. It also serves as a reminder of the grace\, strength\, and power found in our own hands. \nAbout the artist:\nDebbie Gibbs is a mixed media artist whose work explores themes of equity\, justice\, and inclusion through abstract paintings\, mosaics\, and sculptural assemblages. Drawing on her background in theater arts and education\, she combines materials such as acrylic\, paper\, wood\, plaster\, and fabric to create layered\, symbolic works. Her art has been exhibited in Washington\, D.C.\, Colorado\, Texas\, and New Jersey\, including at the Heidi Gallery\, Trenton Artworks\, West Windsor Arts Council and now at the Princeton Arts Council\, January\, 2026.  A larger version of the Hands Talk Series will be exhibited  at Trenton Artworks\, October 2026. Her work can be viewed at www.debbiegibbs.net and on instagram www.instagram.com/gibbsdpg.
