HOWL GALLERY PRESENTS: DEEP WITHIN

A Group Show Curated by Zee Cordero
Featuring César Aguilera, Nancy Iannitilli, Heather Nigro

OPENING RECEPTION THIS FRIDAY FEBRUARY 3RD 6-10PM

“Deep Within is a group show that looks deep within the artist and subject matter of 3 local SWFL artists; Cesar Aguilera, Nancy Iannitilli, and Heather Nigro. I have taken the time to explore their art and thoughts asthey create.”
-Zee Cordero, Show Curator

César Aguilera
Born in Quito, Ecuador, César navigated his childhood by virtue of creative observation, learning from his first curiosities onward that imagination and ingenuity have critical roles to play within our human experiences of life. Exploring these roles has led to a lifetime of experimental works and has taken him through a vast spectrum of mediums, techniques, materials and subject matter. Although his approach is always in flux, his objective remains constant: to use Art as a means of finding solutions to problems that plague our world and the societies that inhabit it.

Nancy Iannitilli
Nancy will be a collection of works of Abstract Expressionism, motivated by a newfound sentiment of artistic freedom. “Now I paint only to express my inner spirituality, without a need to please anyone else.” Nancy’s hope is that upon seeing her latest works, viewers are drawn to let their minds wander, using their own imaginations to discover what they may see on the canvas.

Heather Nigro
Transcending beyond the image, Heather Nigro’s photos tell the story of an uncharted journey that is uniquely her own….One of discovering beauty in imperfection, individuality and introspection. Each picture serves as one of the artist’s most profound memories of a moment that happened by chance. The eclectic nature of her personality is reflected in her work, emanating joy, wisdom and light.

Opening reception February 3rd, from 6-10pm at HOWL Gallery/Tattoo during the Fort Myers Art Walk. Free admission with light refreshments provided. Live music on the HOWL back patio.

Show will run Friday, Feb. 3rd – Monday, Feb. 27th
