Scapes and scope:
visions of the land, sea, and urban space

Scape is a view, a picture, or a scene of our surroundings. This exhibition brings together over 115 works of wide-ranging scapes, from land and sea to town and city. The scope of the work is equally broad as it features emerging artists alongside their accomplished peers, plein air and studio works, plus traditional and more stylized interpretations of subject. These works show a deep passion and appreciation for the natural world; and where people have made impact and brought change, the artists remind us there is beauty as well in our urban surroundings.

​The Role of a Curator

Curators have long been employed by larger institutions to acquire, care for, and develop art collections. This role has changed in recent years to include independent curators not attached to an institution; they propose exhibitions both within and outside the established gallery system, including online collections. Art curators help to stage and arrange artwork in a way that unifies the display of pieces, informs the viewers, and creates further interest in the overall exhibition.

Scapes and Scope: Visions of Land, Sea, and Urban Space was curated by Jim Ellsberry with the assistance of E.E. Jacks who helped jury the works in this show. As an artist and independent curator herself, Jacks assisted in identifying many of the works in the exhibition. Over 115 paintings by more than 70 regional artists were chosen to reflect both traditional and contemporary approaches to painting scapes of land, sea and urban spaces.

“My love of art is anchored in the tradition of landscape painting. But my interests move beyond tradition. I’m greatly influenced by the French Impressionists - their path to modernism - and by the work of New York’s Abstract Expressionist painters. I have a real passion for exploring ideas about art and its process. I always hope to find new and interesting ways to reflect these ideas in my work, especially as they relate to the wonder of the natural world.”   -Jim Ellsberry

“Art is another tool of communication and translation. It is another language, another emotion I use to interact with as many people as possible. I hope my art can show our human connections, provide us with a broader awareness of our world, and advance our understanding and empathy towards each other. I hope my work can help someone remember a time or a place or feel something outside of their current situation. The ‘life moments’ and places I paint are all visual representations of our connections to each other.”   -E.E. Jacks

This work is a reflection on the meaning of sky and water, as they melt into one another, and where the two become indistinguishable.

ROJEAN MACIULA, “Valley of the Sea”, 2021, Acrylic on Masonite, 15 x 15 Inches, $200, This underwater seascape painting started out as an acrylic pour project. I saw within the fluid shapes a deep valley on the seafloor. Inspired by that image, I populated the valley with jellyfish, sea anemones, fish, corals, and algae using painting and collage.
