Surrounded by warm and sunny landscapes full of color, drama and life lead to an awakening need for artistic expression by Juan Duran. Perplexed by the way light can transform the same landscape in a matter of minutes while evoking a wide range of moods and emotions.
Perception of Light is Duran’s own perception of light, his reality. “Every painting is an open door to the privacy of my emotions and views. Through these images I invite you to connect with these ideas and give each your own narrative.”
Artist Reception is June 9th from 4-6pm in the Trusler Gallery. All exhibitions in the Trusler Gallery at Emporia Arts Center are free to the public.
