Loose Change – An Art Show by Dale Kalbfleisch

Coins in the pocket, subtle shifts or evolving perspectives; discovering unexpected treasure in what might be easily passed by. 

“Interesting, satisfying and rewarding isn’t it, to intentionally, or mistakenly find the reins loosened and see where a project or relationship leads.  Accepting ‘two steps forward, one step sideways or back’ mentally, physically, spiritually and with intuition most often allows for beneficial loose change to come about. May our clearest and best intentions and hopes reveal goodness, kindness, growth and welcome in our lives.” Dale Kalbfleisch

Loose Change is an exhibition exploring the shift or change that happens when we loosen the reins in our lives. Using wood veneers, stains, ink, and intricate routing, Dale crafts striking prairie and mountain “seens” that intrigue the viewer with an interplay of nature, perspectives, and the ever-shifting change in landscapes.

Opening Reception: Friday, May 30, 7-9PM
