The Mosesian Center for the Arts presents an exhibition exploring ideas of transformation and change. The works on view consider transformation in both conceptual and material ways, from shifts in perspective, identity, and spirituality to broader social and environmental change.
Artists in the exhibition approach transformation through a wide range of processes and techniques, altering materials to create physical change that reshapes both meaning and form. Across the galleries, objects take on new identities, symbols suggest evolution and transition, and natural elements, animals, and the human figure are reimagined to evoke states of metamorphosis.
Spanning painting, printmaking, drawing, illustration, photography, sculpture, mixed media, and more, the exhibition reflects a world in constant motion. Together, these works invite viewers to consider transformation as an ongoing condition, one defined by fluidity, tension, and the potential for renewal.
This exhibition coincides and relates thematically with our Spring Soirée: An Annual Benefit on May 21, highlighting the impact of MCA and featuring the impressive artists who create their work here, featuring entertaining performances and breathtaking visual art that showcases the depth and breadth of our programming.
