Discover Albany Visitors Center Hosts Tucked Away: Paintings and Photography by Sandra Dwileski
New exhibit features nature paintings and photography from local artist
Albany, NY – The Discover Albany Visitors Center is excited to host a new exhibit, Tucked Away: Paintings and Photography by Sandra Dwileski. The exhibit features a variety of work from local artist Sandra Dwileski.
“In a world that is often moving too fast to really 'see', nature provides sanctuaries for us in every nook and crevice. Sometimes we have to look at our surroundings from a different perspective, perhaps become a tiny creature amongst the clover or take wing above the daisies to truly perceive nature's magic,” says artist Sandra Dwileski.
The exhibit showcases nature photography, whimsical paintings and works of art. “This body of work is intended to reacquaint the viewer with wildness and the untamed environment that we have forgotten. There is hope that our reconnection with nature can provide us with a sense of peace, as well as a feeling of obligation to take care of our most precious Mother Earth,” says artist Sandra Dwileski.
Tucked Away: Paintings and Photography by Sandra Dwileski will be on display at the Discover Albany Visitors Center, located at 25 Quackenbush Square, Albany, from May 6 – June 28, 2019. The exhibit opening reception will be held on Friday, May 17 from 5:30 – 7:30PM.
