Kubiat Nnamdie: Looking Glass, Ernesto Kunde: Intertwined, Tom Virgin: Open Book

Kubiat Nnamdie is an artist, photographer, and musician originally from Nigeria. He is based in the Lower East Side of New York, spending his formative years between Houston, Texas and North Miami, Florida.

In his extensive examination of Miami’s natural habitat, Brazilian native Ernesto Kunde uses contrasting colors and abstract imagery to depict mangroves’ intricate root systems, sea grapes and their canopies, and other native plant life.

Miami-based artist Tom Virgin creates prints, book arts, installations, and public art. His community-centric work has examined national parks, artist’s residencies, students/teachers, and the shared space where various disciplines overlap to build collaborative group projects. Open Book, an installation created for the Art and Culture Center of Hollywood, will expand on a number of his recent artist’s books that look at public schools.

Artist’s Reception: Friday, Feb. 6,        6:00 – 9 pm
