DESCRIPTION:On view Thursday, January 26 (opening reception 6-8pm) to Saturday, March 
 25, 2023, Thur-Fri 3pm-6pm, Sat 12-5pm\n\nOver the past few months, 
 disabled artists at Creativity Explored have been hard at work turning 
 trash into treasure as part of a first-of-its-kind collaboration with the 
 Recology Artist-in-Residence Program. Now, to kick off our 40th 
 anniversary, we unveil their masterpieces in our first exhibition of the 
 year: RELOVE.\n\nArtists at CE have often worked with recycled materials, 
 but this collaboration enabled them to work on a grander scale. Objects 
 that at first glance seem useless (plastic jewelry, broken doors, punching 
 bags) have been given new life by CE artists, who found opportunity in the 
 most unlikely of places.\n\nThe prolific Samedi Djeimguero reinvented white 
 styrofoam and dead-stock costume jewelry into a life-sized multimedia 
 wonderland, complete with gem-encrusted caves, colorfully painted surfaces, 
 and intricate drawings. Daniel Green fully illuminated a treasure trove of 
 old record sleeves, while pattern-prone artist Ethel Revita discovered a 
 new medium in jettisoned house paints.\n\nRELOVE is the culmination of 
 hours of labor by staff and artists alike. From scavenging for recycled 
 materials at the Recology Transfer Station to working with artists in the 
 studio to realize their visions, our teaching artists have been integral to 
 this residency. This exhibition is a testament to the magic of 
 collaboration, the unique symbiosis between CE artists and their beloved 
 teaching artists that makes up the very essence of CE. \n\nRELOVE shows 
 what happens when artists push past tradition to share their vision of the 
 world and expand perspectives on what can be. The transformation of these 
 once-discarded objects is nothing less than magical, inspiring us all to 
 cherish what we have and find meaning in the mundane.\n\nJoin us at the 
 opening on January 26 at the CE gallery from 6-8 PM, or view the exhibition 
 through March 25.\n\nFree\n
