The bolder gallery artist collective consists of a wide range of refined
artists representing the areas of visual arts and photography. Each artist
brings a vast range of experiences that together converge to form visions
and perspectives from urban abstracts to the metaphors of nature.
Together, these influences converge and intersect to form a more broad
and nuanced vision of our urban and natural worlds as enriched by this
exciting group of fine artists’ lived experiences. This grouping of works
allows us to glide smoothly through the soft-textured aromatic mist of living
things to the lure of bright flashing steel intersecting clean sharp edges.
BIOGRAPHY: bolder gallery artist collective
What do you get when you combine seven distinctly different mature
artists? EXCITEMENT!
The bolder gallery artist collective is a loose association of like-minded
people, 65 years and plus; artists with surprising visual diversity. As mature,
professional artists working independently, we come together to share
ideas and collaborate on assorted projects…exciting things that have
beginnings and, sometimes, ends. The work is bold, powerful and full of
energy.
We are bound together by the passion, the spark that we each have for
our work and the creation of it that has not diminished with the passing of
time. Indeed, for most of us, that desire to express our individual voice, to
speak through our art, has never been stronger despite our advancing
years.
We search for the ‘inner complexity of images’. We look for ‘other layers
of abstraction’. We continue ‘visual dialogues’ and like to ‘change the
conversation’. We question stereotypes and accepted norms. We
capture beauty. We question. We explore. We create…and we do it
again and again.
