SUMMARY:"Deep Listening"  Exhibition

The exhibition features seven artists from Germany\, Spain\, Mexico\, Brazil\, and the United States whose paths first crossed during the Bonfire Aire Artist Retreat in Iceland in November 2025.\nThrough painting\, drawing\, installation\, digital media\, and mixed-media works\, Deep Listening explores themes of attention\, presence\, memory\, landscape\, and our relationship to the natural world. Inspired by experiences in Iceland’s natural terrain\, shaped by volcanic activity\, glaciers\, shifting weather\, and extended periods of silence\, the works reflect on geological time\, perception\, environmental awareness\, and the transformative power of attentive observation.\nWhile each artist brings a distinct cultural perspective and visual language\, the exhibition is united by a shared commitment to slowing down\, observing deeply\, and listening to both the world around us and the inner landscapes we carry.Participating artists include Paula Fraile (Spain)\, Vero Glezqui (Mexico)\, Bob Landstrom (United States)\, Katharina Langer (Germany)\, Montserrat Serra (Spain)\, Rachel Tanugi (Brazil)\, and Carla Taylor (United States).\nDuring the reception\, artist Bob Landstrom will present a live sound demonstration at 7:00 p.m.Deep Listening is free and open to the public.\nFor additional information\, please contact:Carla Taylorcarlataylorart.comInstagram: @ctaylorart\n\nTypical Hours of Operation\nSaturday and Sunday: 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM\nMonday through Wednesday: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM\nThursday and Friday:11:00 AM – 4:00 PM
