Opening Reception: Loretta Park

  • Brookline Arts Center 86 Monmouth Street Brookline, MA, 02446 United States (map)

We are thrilled to invite you to the Opening Reception of Loretta Park's highly anticipated exhibit titled "Threading Fruit Loops". This event will showcase Loretta's unique artistic approach, which weaves together various objects to create vibrant and whimsical pieces of art.

Loretta's exhibition statement beautifully captures the essence of her work:

β€œAs I eat a spoonful of Froot Loops, overwhelmingly sugary and artificial fruit flavors burst inside my mouth. Crunchy cereal softens and mixes with cool milk. Different flavors are intertwined and become one. At the end, colorful and milky residue is left inside a bowl."

Drawing inspiration from the colorful and sugary world of Froot Loops, Loretta's creations exhibit a harmonious blend of excessive colors, sweetness, and organic ingenuity. She repurposes materials such as mesh bags, plastic plates, and chandelier pieces to breathe life into her art. Guided by intuition, Loretta skillfully threads a needle to sew these disparate objects together, mirroring the childhood joy of creating candy necklaces and stringing together moments of delight.

Loretta's hope is that as people approach her artwork, they too will be delighted and captivated by the easily accessible and identifiable materials she uses. By inviting individuals to explore what they understand and make sense of moments that may initially seem puzzling, Loretta's art encourages us to savor any chance we get to have fun, as joy can be fleeting.

We would be honored to have your presence at the Opening Reception for "Threading Fruit Loops". Please join us on Sunday, July 16 at 4:30-6:30pm at the Brookline Arts Center. This is an opportunity to immerse yourself in Loretta Park's enchanting world and engage with her thought-provoking creations firsthand.

We look forward to sharing this exciting event with you and celebrating Loretta's artistic journey. Snacks and refreshments will be served, adding an extra layer of sweetness to the evening.

Don't miss the chance to witness Loretta Park's extraordinary talent and experience the joy of her "Threading Fruit Loops" exhibit. We can't wait to see you there!
