Sheep River: A Public Event

Opening Reception

July 12th from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Artist Talk & Forum: Lower Gallery - 5 p.m.

LOCATION: The Ranch House - 354160 64 St. Foothills, AB.

This stunning exhibition, including both indoor and outdoor spaces, invites the viewer to engage in a visual conversation. What is our relationship to our surrounding landscape? Why is the juxtaposition of life and death, what is raw, with what is refined so compelling? And what drives our innate desire to contain what is natural within what is made by man, or to talk what is linear and release it into this wilderness?

This stunning convergence of different mediums, featuring the work of mixed media artist Jennifer Peters, will also include two immaculate collections by fellow artist Verna Vogel and a rock carving and collaboration with newcomer Kevin Elliott from Calgary’s Set in Stone. The upper gallery will include Jennifer’s delightful Wonderland Collection, as well as a series of two-dimensional work by other local artists, ranging from the art student, to the seasoned professional. Guests will also be invited to tour the natural landscape amid horses, a short hike that extends throughout the property, including the actual sites for Jennifer’s performance/photographic work, installation, paintings and the Sheep River itself. Do not miss this unique, family-friendly event!
