We are intrinsically and deeply tied to water, especially in Florida. The waters that surround us in the landscape, the waters that flow underneath our feet in the aquifer -- they nourish us, connect us, divide us, and inspire us. The works in this exhibition explore various “states” of water, from literal to figurative -- whether physically transcending states from liquid, to solid, to gas; to a flowing state of a winding river; to an emotional state flowing down a cheek; to a state of advancement from rising seas.
In anticipation of World Water Day on March 22nd, the State of Water will showcase up to 50 original works of art by the most talented artists residing in Gainesville and in surrounding communities. Established and emerging artists who reside in the North/Central Florida region are eligible to submit entries for consideration. The State of Water exhibition will be held at Cypress and Grove Brewery from March 20th - 29th, 2020 and coincide with the World Water Day Festival at the brewery on March 22nd and Art Walk on March 27th.
