SUMMARY:Art Opening at MIX Art Gallery ~ A glimpse before waking by Adrienne Wooster & Jeremy Schilling
DESCRIPTION:This December\, MIX Art Gallery presents a glimpse before waking\, a dual exhibition by Adrienne Wooster and Jeremy Schilling. The title gestures toward that hazy threshold between dreaming and daylight… the moment before the mind snaps back into its daily operating manual. Both artists create from a place of awe\, trying to hold onto the wonder that can get swallowed by routine. \nWooster’s multimedia series\, Cathedrals from Pieces\, blends drawing\, painting\, and collage into figurative and architectural forms. She describes her process as a return to curiosity: a reminder that we’re clusters of molecules spinning through space\, somehow capable of love\, grief\, invention\, and joy. That sense of improbable magic fuels her work and her childlike romanticism of the world. \nSchilling’s practice investigates the emotional terrain between humans and their environments. In The Overview Effect\, he turns toward space travel\, exploring the astronaut’s suit as both armor and boundary. His oil\, watercolor\, and mixed-media pieces capture the homesickness\, solitude\, and acceptance that accompany exploration and change. \nTogether\, Wooster and Schilling offer a shared inquiry into connection—how we experience the world\, how we hold onto wonder\, and how we navigate the unknown. \n***A special event will accompany the exhibition: on December 12\, 2025\, the Jesse Collins Jazz Ensemble will perform live at MIX Art Gallery from 7–9 PM.

SUMMARY:Art Opening at MIX Art Gallery!  "First Light" by Basil Bakhshi Opening Reception Friday\, Nov. 11th from 5-8PM
DESCRIPTION:This November 2025\, MIX Art Gallery presents First Light by Basil Bakhshi. Born in war-torn Pakistan\, Bakhshi lived on the streets until adoption brought him into a world of stability and creative possibility. Those beginnings left an enduring imprint on his vision\, one that recognizes tension and resilience as essential parts of beauty. \nNow based in New York’s Finger Lakes\, Bakhshi draws inspiration from the region’s shifting light and tranquil landscapes. His work spans oil painting and ceramics\, guided by the Japanese concept of shibumi: an unpretentious\, balanced beauty that reveals itself through simplicity and depth. His art carries the rawness of experience while offering stillness and reflection. \nBakhshi’s plein-air oil painting\, awarded Best in Show in French Alezum\, Pennsylvania\, affirmed his commitment to painting directly from life. In First Light\, he exhibits alongside his partner\, Billie Bakhshi\, whose debut features lively\, affordable works that radiate warmth and joy. Together\, their practices explore contrast and harmony; two expressions of a shared pursuit to find beauty in the everyday. \nTo celebrate the exhibition\, Basil Bakhshi is offering a complimentary “Abstract Portrait” with the purchase of any work. “Each color becomes a heartbeat\, each line a whisper of presence\,” he explains. “Through abstraction\, I reveal memory\, mood\, and the inner rhythm of being.” \nMIX Art Gallery is open Thursdays and Fridays from 3 -7 PM\, and Saturdays from 12 -6 PM\, at 156 E. State St. on the Ithaca Commons. Visit www.mixartgallery.com or shop online at https://www.mixartgallery.com/shop-artists.

SUMMARY:MIX Art Gallery's Opening Reception for "Human Nature" with Sculptor/Poet Shawn Bridget Hull
DESCRIPTION:At MIX Art Gallery’s main showroom on the Ithaca Commons this month\, we have our new exhibition entitled “Human Nature” by sculptor and poet\, Shawn Bridget Hull\, also featuring the most recent pastel drawing by Trumansburg’s celebrated artist Joy Adams\, and photos of human nature by Wendy Gherity.   \nFor Shawn\, sculpting in clay isn’t just art\, it’s a profound dialogue — a conversation between artist\, material\, and observer. Working exclusively with porcelain\, Shawn finds beauty in its fragility\, transforming it into a testament of strength through the fiery kiln.\nHer art springs from nature’s forms\, each curve and contour infused with personal narrative\, weaving a tapestry of metaphor. Poetry and storytelling aren’t separate\, but rather the very essence of her sculptural creations\, exploring the profound unity between humanity and the natural world. “Nature doesn’t merely surround us; it is us\,” she emphasizes. \nShawn’s narratives are subtle\, intimate whispers designed to resonate deeply within the viewer’s imagination. Each sculpture is an invitation—a direct communication that transcends the physical form\, bridging her world with theirs. The intensely personal becomes universally understood. \nIn these speaking sculptures\, color acts as a silent language\, a key unlocking deeper meaning. Shawn aspires to forge a powerful connection\, to stir emotions\, and to ignite a spark of recognition. Her ultimate hope is to reveal how our interactions with one another mirror our relationship with nature\, fostering a deeper\, more mindful consideration of both. \nCome see “Human Nature” at MIX Art Gallery this July 4-26th. Open THURSDAYS & FRIDAYS 3-7\, and SATURDAYS 12-6.  We are on the 2nd floor of 156 E. State Street\, right on the Ithaca Commons\, or visit our online store at www.mixartgallery.com/shop-artists.

SUMMARY:MIX Art Gallery presents "Interact with Abstract" art opening on Ithaca's Gallery Night\, Friday\, Feb. 8th 5-8PM
DESCRIPTION:February’s exhibition at MIX Art Gallery showcases a new face in the local art scene. Peter “Rafe” Harpending\, originally from Elmira\, NY\, now resides in Ithaca. With a naturally inquisitive spirit\, he describes his personality as a gradient of colors from yellow and orange to red. It’s no surprise that his drawings reflect his degree in Biology\, as his artistic interests focus on “living things” from various clades. While there are many detailed drawings of insects\, birds\, fish\, and more that will be available\, the highlighted works on our gallery walls will primarily be his mesmerizing abstracts.  \n“I must have had an innate urge to create a visual world\, starting at a very young age—perhaps as early as I could talk. Additionally\, my mother appreciated modern art\, and that early exposure motivated me to create.” Harpending draws inspiration primarily from modern abstract art\, and his biggest influences include Mondrian\, Klimt\, Dali\, Klee\, John McLaughlin\, Pollock\, and Georgia O’Keeffe\, among others. “I’m fascinated by the fact that humans are both ordered and biological beings!  The order represented in many of my geometric pieces is juxtaposed with disruptive visual elements.  This expresses an obsession with the tension between order and chaos\, the notion that humans can create a thin veneer of spatial and temporal structure\, but underneath lies the inevitable turbulent and maddening realm of nature.”  \nAlmost reminiscent of Native American art\, these abstract pieces are both compelling and captivating\, and whether on paper or simple board\, they are attractively priced. A must-see this February showing through March 1st\, 2025.
