Please join us for a reception from 1 – 3 p.m. on Saturday, March 16 to meet artist, Jered Sprecher.

Interpreting botanical images shown through technology’s visual filters, Jered Sprecher’s paintings are unlike any other. In collaboration with Whitespace Gallery, located in Inman Park, Atlanta, Monument of Dirt & Air, features 10 oil paintings by Jered Sprecher that depict plants viewed through the lens of technology. These paintings explore how nature appears when it’s warped by the white light of a glowing tablet screen, the streaky alien colors that come from a printer’s failing ink cartridge, or the surprising shapes created by a computer glitch. They are a truly striking example of abstract botanical art. Monument of Dirt & Air is on view in the Gardenhouse Gallery March 9 – June 3.

Included with Garden admission.
