These exhibits open at 3:30 p.m. slt on Sunday December the 28th.  At 3:30 we will congregate at the sim of Ars Simulacra and tour the exhibit created by Glyph Graves.   Glyph’s pieces are colorful, organic, generally kinetic, sometimes reactive pieces of virtual art and prim manipulation.  Light and color permeates each piece in such a way that you may be mesmerized for hours as they transform shapes and hues.  Glyph has created sculpture and art which responds to  Second Life wind as he explores and utilizes the SL platform, math, and color intertwining  them to create  beautiful reactive sculpture.  A wonderful musician, Grace McDunnough will be performing live for your listening pleasure during the opening.

At 5:00 p.m slt we will meet at the Aho Museum.  The Aho brings to you numerous works with a wide variety of unique Second Life art, including several one-of- a- kind pieces from various artists. The Museum is an amazing work of architectural art created by NMC’s CJ Carnot.  While settings are on midnight, you will notice the subtle changes in hues on the building and will be awestruck by the beauty and design.

The two featured artists at this exhibit are Gwen Carillon and Gracie Kendal.  Gracie’s art is located on the third floor of the museum and Gwen’s is outside in the west and southwest sculpture gardens.

Gracie creates beautiful wall art, painting and creating with vibrant splashes of color, shapes and patterns, while Gwen creates beautiful virtual sculpture manipulating prims and light while infusing stunning colors.

There will be an amazing pianist, Louis Volare performing live at this event as well for your listening pleasure!

We invite you to take in the amazing eye candy these three wonderful artists create, and enjoy the atmosphere, music and art with us and our friends!  If you would like one of the posters shown here with the information included contact Tayzia Abattoir.  The posters were created using artwork from each artist.
