Internal Perspectives
ARC Gallery Members’ Group Show
October 3 – 28, 2023
Opening Reception: Thursday, Oct. 5, 6-8 PM
This exhibition is a mirror of the individual artists that make up the current membership of ARC Gallery. The work exhibited here testifies to the interconnectedness of our current membership and to the legacy we represent. Within this reflection, we pause to acknowledge the women who created the context of our 50 year artist-run organization.
Internal Perspectives reflects each artist’s drive to explore the corridors of their inner dialogue using a wide array of diverse mediums and traditions. The perspectives we craft, from the inside-out, show how the multifaceted nature of our experiences link together within the shared experience of being human. In this exhibition, personal histories intertwine with the spirit of the present zeitgeist.
Internal Perspectives blends respect for our past with a meditation on the current dialogue and captures the very essence of what it means to be a female artist in 2023’s rapidly evolving landscape.

Seeking Solace: Photographs by Jane Stevens
In uncertain times, Stevens seeks comfort in nature. Her photographs capture moments of tranquil contemplation and invite the viewer to share the serenity she finds.
The photographs capture the magical and spiritual quality a camera can record as well as the essence and spirit of a place. Using this light sensitive medium, Jane Stevens captures a moment in time and the illusive quality of light.
Stevens lives and works in Chicago, IL. She is a curator, photographer, and art educator whose work focuses on both personal and natural landscapes.
