First Friday Art Opening

  • Tenn St Coffee & Books 4418 Tennyson Street Denver, CO, 80212 United States (map)

Step into the ethereal world of multimedia artist Amie Oakley at Tenn Street Coffee & Books' First Friday exhibition. Join us for an evening where dreams meet reality, and synchronicity weaves its magic through every piece.

Drawing inspiration from the mystical words of Rumi—"What you seek, also seeks you"—Amie Oakley's work invites viewers into a realm where the conscious and unconscious dance together. Through her unique multimedia approach, she explores the deep human longing for connection with the sacred, bringing dreams and myths to tangible form.

Oakley's creative process is as fascinating as her finished works. Using the "cut-up" method - a technique pioneered by the Dadaists and embraced by cultural icons like William Burroughs and David Bowie - she allows synchronicity to guide her artistic journey. This innovative approach combines random text fragments with intentional creation, resulting in layers of meaning that seem almost destined to exist.

Media & Methods Working primarily with:
• Acrylic and oil paints
• Photo transfer techniques
• Clothing-pattern tissue paper
• Charcoal
• Botanical elements Each piece serves as a window into the collective unconscious, inviting viewers to rediscover forgotten connections and explore the mysterious tapestry of human experience.

Join us to experience this unique exhibition where every piece tells a story of synchronicity and sacred connection. Meet the artist, explore the artwork, and perhaps discover something that has been seeking you all along.
