Inspired by mythology and the life of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Beth
Kruziki’s powerful acrylic paintings begin a
journey into expressionism. The project explores the connection
between found or recycled objects and
art. The work is raw, abstract, modern, humanistic, and deeply
expressionistic. The images in each piece are
powerful, yet fragile. Each painting is transformed when it is held up
to the sun or light—the perspective changes from raw and abstract to
unassuming and vulnerable. Beth played with light, brushstroke, and
expression to create unique points of view when looking at each piece
from multiple angles. Each piece is dedicated to her son for his
sincere love of literature and his unwavering curiosity about life.
Come see Beth's incredible light Pieces this month at M.E.C.C.A.

All artist's are welcome to come and trade ATC's (artist trading cards) the last Saturday of the month from 11-12pm at MECCA! Join us for a swap and a technique demo. What is an ATC?
Using ATC guidelines, we invite you to make as many cards as you like, in any medium and bring them to trade with other artists. This is a great chance for creative play, to acquire and learn about new art mediums and to network with other local artists.
Are you or your child crafty and creative? Then consider MECCA for your next birthday party. We have a great space and will provide a guided recycled art activity for your party goers. All materials included. We have a partial kitchen and fridge for cake and refreshments. We charge a sliding scale fee of $6-10 per person for a 2 hour party.
