Archway Gallery presents "Gaia’s Oracle,"featuring new paintings by Becky Soria.

For some years now, Soria’s work has focused on human and animal figures. In those works, Soria re-constructed female and animal forms from within, though not in any literal sense of depicting internal organs and such. Rather, through her sophisticated, painterly surfaces, she suggested forceful yet ambiguous “interiorities” that were poetic, emotionally intense, conceptual, and existential.

In this new group of works, Soria has moved her penetrating gaze from those figures into the external world they inhabit. This is the dwelling place of Gaia - Mother Earth. “I feel this urge, as an artist, to respond to the urgent call of Mother Earth,” quotes Soria.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until May 6.
