Art & Light Gallery to Host ‘Maximalist Playground’ Exhibit

Greenville – The local Art & Light Gallery will be hosting a provocative exhibit entitled ‘Maximalist Playground’ which will start from September 3 and run until September 28. The exhibition will showcase the works of noted sculptor Olivia Bonilla and well-known painter Liz Rundorff Smith.

Exhibit Details

Art & Light Gallery is positioned at 16 Aiken St. in Greenville. The ‘Maximalist Playground’ exhibition will be accessible physically in this location, as well as virtually on the gallery’s website.

About the Artists

Olivia Bonilla has conceived art that is both striking and whimsical, making use of cement and resin to construct her sculptures. Her use of these materials underscores her command over textures, transforming ordinary materials into detailed, dynamic art pieces.

On the other hand, Liz Rundorff Smith, an accomplished oil painter, graces her canvas with allure and fascination. Each stroke of her brush helps add depth and dimension to her artwork. Her creative journey is marked with a unique blend of shadows and light, with the use of oil paint adding a sophisticated touch to her work.

An Invitation to an Artistic Journey

Art & Light Gallery invites art enthusiasts to embark on a journey through the ‘Maximalist Playground’. A visual treat, the display promises vibrant encounters with bold shapes, effervescent colors, and conspicuous patterns—a commanding flight into the world of maximalist art, supported by the meticulous work of Olivia Bonilla and Liz Rundorff Smith.
