Featured Exhibitors Also on Display During the Exhibition
 John Cullen
John Cullen, acclaimed abstract impressionist, displays a collection of new paintings, otherworldly glimpses that channel a creative mysticism. This emotional and spiritual influence is manifested in his images, many drawn from inspiration found by contemplating reflections in water. Created primarily in acrylic on wood panel, Cullen’s work offers a beautiful glimpse into the link between inspiration and an artist’s work.

Lorin Silverman
Corning artist, Lorin Silverman, merges traditional glass techniques with a personal vision that is the trademark of each of his hand-blown vessels. Taking inspiration from transformative moments in life and the genesis of behaviors that result from such moments, Silverman creates highly charged art objects that are intended to inspire self-reflection rather than promote self-portraiture. He is constantly challenging himself to do more experimental work while maintaining the high level of fine craftsmanship that is his foundation.
