About the event

July Exhibit: Percussive Maintenance by Patrick Leer
Join us for a show of bright and lively abstract paintings at the Creston Depot Arts Gallery!

Join us for an exhibit full of bright and lively abstract paintings and mixed media on canvas and paper, painted intuitively in a contemporary expressionist style. Leer’s artwork is an infusion of energy and optimism. He chooses to combat negativity with vibrant colors and bold strokes on canvas and paper.

Opening Reception on July 4th from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the Creston Arts Depot Gallery. Light refreshments will be provided.

Artist's Statement
In a world increasingly fractured by division, art stands as a beacon of optimism. It transcends spoken languages and cultural boundaries, offering a universal language that has the power to pull people together. Even when a piece itself sparks debate, it creates a platform for conversation, fostering empathy and understanding where other institutions often fail.

As an artist, I choose to combat negativity with vibrant colors and bold strokes on canvas and paper. My work is an infusion of energy and optimism, a testament to the enduring human spirit. Through abstracted organic forms, I explore the complexities of our existence. These forms dance between creation and destruction, growth and devastation. They represent the raw power of human resourcefulness, constantly grappling with the flawed dynamics of our markets. My paintings are a contemplation of the true cost of missed opportunities, yet they also hold a potent message: the potential to correct course still exists.

In this divided world, I believe art offers us a path towards unity. Come, let's engage in a visual conversation, let's celebrate the beauty and complexity of our shared experience.
