Amy Shackleton "REFLECTIONS OF THE FUTURE" January and February 2014

Elaine Fleck Gallery Represented artist Amy Shackleton has been SELLING OUT SHOWS at the Elaine Fleck Gallery for several years now and her trajectory for the New Year is straight up.
2014 starts out for Amy with a rare honour for an artist, a two month SOLO SHOW at the Elaine Fleck Gallery.
Exhibition Title: "REFLECTIONS OF THE FUTURE".
Artist Statement: “My new series of work is inspired by a recent trip along the coast of California. Throughout my travels I found myself gazing into water, admiring the movements, colours and reflections of the world around me. Reflections can be clear or distorted—transforming our view of the present. In this show I use reflections in pools, lakes and skyscrapers to manipulate my surroundings. I distort the present to reflect my vision of a sustainable future—a future where cities welcome the natural world.”Amy Shackleton
