About the Artist:
Ginger Huebner is a visual artist, art educator, and creative facilitator who believes in the power of cultivating authentic connection through creativity. Her mixed media work uses found imagery and chalk pastel to create works that are visual translations capturing feelings and emotions that transcend expression through mere words. Her inspiration stems from the many facets of life, faith, love, and the tension between the struggle and hope of our shared humanity.
About the Exhibition:
Surrender : Embrace is Ginger Huebner’s new solo show that marks the beginning of a new chapter as she shifts as director of the school she founded in 2009, Roots + Wings School of Art and Design, to full time artist and creative facilitator. This body of work emerged from the challenges and struggles that so many have faced over the last few years. The pieces represent a leaning into–an embracing of–the surrender of control of what is to come. The works are structured by edges and pathways of the natural world that act as touch points for her layers of color using the medium of chalk pastel. Huebner offers a new way of seeing what is possible in the face of struggle, giving viewers a sense of hope for what lies ahead.
