Please join us for the exhibition opening and artist reception at Long-Sharp Gallery on Friday, October 6th from 6-9pm.

The artist behind this exhibition, Jason Myers, is a prolific multi-disciplinary artist with studios in Indiana and the Netherlands. His artwork invites the use of such materials as steel, resin and computer generated prints. Complex, layered and exquisitely executed, Myers’s work often questions our current political and socioeconomic environment.

According to the artist: "The most interesting thing about life is that our mortality makes us 'all in'. No matter what you do, you are not getting out alive. We should live every day of life to its fullest potential. Take risks, do things that scare you. Fragility is what makes us feel alive. In some ways we absorb this fear, in other ways we perpetuate it. Embracing this state of fragility is healthy and truly living, rather than just existing.”
