BLOOM: Art of Flowers, Foliage & Fruit Juried Exhibition
@ Oak Park Art League
720 Chicago Ave, Oak Park, IL 60302
Opening Saturday, June 13th, from 1PM - 3PM
On view through Sunday, August 2nd
This juried exhibition celebrates the diverse ways artists interpret, reimagine, and respond to floral and botanical subjects through contemporary perspectives and explores the timeless yet ever-evolving relationship between humanity and the botanical world.
From intimate studies of botanical detail to abstract interpretations of natural forms, environmental commentary to cultural symbolism, this exhibition presents works that engage with flowers, foliage, and fruit as more than mere subject matter—as vessels for deeper artistic inquiry and expression.
Exhibition Juror: Kathleen Garness
