Pathways to Awakening is a three-person exhibition including the works of Susan Newbold, Heidi Lewis Coleman and Stephanie Joyce. The works are meditative environments inspired by nature and sacred geometry. A variety of materials have been incorporated such as mylar, wood, Japanese rice papers, cut steel and Indian block prints. Working collaboratively, the artists’ studio sessions began with meditation and yoga, which opened the flow of creativity and the artwork took shape and form. In the spirit of yoga (which means to “yoke” or join) a Coptic-bound artists book was created for the exhibition, each artist exploring new mediums and finding their own pathways to awakening.
