Arts Burlington is looking forward to its big spring show and sale at the Art Gallery of Burlington (AGB), taking place on May 25 and 26, 2024.
Arts Burlington is a committee representing the Burlington Fine Arts Association, the Burlington Handweavers and Spinners Guild, the Burlington Potters’ Guild, the Burlington Rug Hooking Guild, the Burlington Guild of Sculptors and Carvers, and the Latow Photographers Guild, all of which have studio space at the AGB.
Artists from each of AGB’s guilds and associations will be represented at the sale, which will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on both days. You’ll find ceramics, photographs, wood craft, paintings, and much more.
Ahead of the sale, get to know some of the talented artists who are members of Burlington’s art community via Arts Burlington’s “Meet the Artist” video interview series, starting this week with Sean Morello.
Sean Morello explores universal experiences and concurrent events, using allegories as a conceptual frame of work. Print media, installation, fibre art, mixed media, animation, video, sound, and assemblage become intersectional components, rather than individual and separate entities.
His choice of media is as diverse as the universal experiences he conveys, since the politics of identity that appear thematically in his work are also subjected to various intersections and multiple interpretations. Sean’s current process is focused on weaving, with an intense focus on colour; both warp threads and weft threads are planned to allow as much colour play as possible for bright and bold statement pieces.
