Light Of The Ocean
Southampton Arts Center presents the exhibit “Light Of The Ocean,” with artwork by Francisco Alvarado-Juárez. The show opened with a reception on Friday, November 2. The show is a dynamic, site-specific installation by Alvarado-Juárez, a New York-based American artist born in Honduras.
With the help of community volunteers and experts from Cornell Cooperative Extension Marine Program, the two main galleries have been turned into a magical marine environment with pathways through sand, seashells, and other organic materials indigenous to the East End, plus video projections of water and marine life, approximately 30 large-scale acrylic paintings, and thousands of repurposed painted paper bags.
