SUMMARY:GUEST ARTIST EXHIBITION: Three Feather Studios
DESCRIPTION:VISUAL ART\nJeremy Salazar: Three Feather Studios\nFriday\, July 12 through Sunday\, August 25\, 2024\nJudy & Tim Terrell Main Lobby\nWe are proud to host exceptional guest artists for pop-up solo exhibitions in the Judy & Tim Terrell Lobby at the Center for the Arts. All artwork on display is available for sale\, directly benefitting the artist with a small percentage supporting Kayenta Arts Foundation. \nOur Lobby is open Monday through Saturday\, 10am-6pm\, plus one hour before all evening events. \nNative American artist Jeremy Salazar is a contemporary painter based in Albuquerque\, New Mexico. \nHe specializes in vibrant acrylic portraitures with a combination of abstraction and realism. “What I try to emphasize in my work are the eyes and facial expressions of my characters\, making these more realistic and full of depth while the rest of the composition fades away into abstract colors. The color schemes sets the mood while the face gives life to the painting.” \nHaving been born and raised on the Navajo reservation in New Mexico\, Jeremy has never received any formal art training and is consequently a self-taught artist. Yet his humble upbringing on the reservation has helped shape his artistic paradigm and purpose for art. “I grew up without running water and electricity—old dirt roads\, sagebrush\, out in the middle of nowhere. Although a meager upbringing\, it was in retrospect\, an open canvas for me as a young kid. It is a passion for me to help represent the authentic native arts as an authentic native artist. We as native peoples know our own stories best\, the ones who lived it\, the story tellers.” \nUsing a bold and vibrant color palette in every painting\, Jeremy has come on scene as a promising emerging artist. Making both a statement of reclaiming authentic native artwork done by native hands and also painted stories of color and faces of the Native American people. \nLearn More at https://www.three-feather-studios.com/ \n
