WAH Bridges Self is a multi-media group exhibition dedicated to presenting the work of artists seeking to express, define, and complicate the notion of self-expression. Based on the Bridge Concept envisioned by WAH Center Founder & Artistic Director, Yuko Nii, the aim is to create a bridge between the WAH Center and the chosen artists’ self-expression, and through the works shown, to create a bridge between the artists themselves. These works explore the myriad ways in which artists use their work to express interiority and the methods through which they define and represent themselves. WAH Bridges Self is an open deliberation considering the nature of how we use art to represent ourselves and how creative process defines or shapes our self-perception.

Plus “Silent Auction- Small Works less than $200,” in the Small Gallery

We have offered accepted artists an opportunity to sell works in a silent auction in the small gallery. The Silent Auction is a fantastic opportunity for collectors to but affordably priced, smaller works from the artists shown in the main gallery.
