Bihl Haus Arts celebrates the reopening of the gallery to the public with an artist reception for "Botanical Sensations."  The exhibition features the works of mother-daughter artists Carmen Oliver and Daniela Oliver de Portillo. It is also a celebration of thriving and surviving through the pandemic and coming through it stronger and better than ever.

“Botanical Sensations” is truly a family affair featuring the work of mother and daughter Carmen Oliver and Daniela Oliver de Portillo. During the pandemic, both artists used their studio practice to heal and distill the intense emotions brought on by uncertainty and solitude.

Without realizing it or discussing it, both artists, whose work had always been markedly different, turned to the botanical and natural world as inspiration and a point of departure for creating two distinctly unique emotional manifestations. Their simultaneous and unintentional use of plants as subject matter is a reflection on family ties, intuitive connections, and the unbreakable bond between mothers and daughters.

The opening reception for "Botanical Sensations" includes live music by Lucero Villa, poolside food and libations and paletas.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display through August 14.
