New year, new art! Revelstoke Visual Arts Centre (RVAC) debuts new exhibits, offering a viewing and social on Jan. 4. The viewing runs from 2 p.m. – 5 p.m., followed by the social until 8 p.m.
VISTO by Antonia Otoya
Antonia Otoya’s new exhibit VISTO explores a unique but universal experience.
“It’s a collection of paintings and murals that showcase the duality of being a newcomer to a foreign land, being constantly amazed by the beauty of nature and the loneliness of being surrounded by strangers,” she told the Mountaineer.
Check out her recent work on instagram @anto.otoya.
Headspace by Axel Morrison
Morrison’s exhibit Headspace is a mixed media project inspired by the concept of self expression.
“With the current complex environments we all navigate in a digital world, it’s interesting to explore the mixed visual elements that can represent ourselves,” Morrison told the Mountaineer.
Check out more of Morrison’s work on his instagram @axel.savoury or on his website axelmorrison.com.
Meadows in the Sky by Andrea Simmonds
Simmonds exhibit Meadows in the Sky is inspired by the alpine wildflower meadows and “the celestial influences that shape these places.”
“I see the stars as a reflection of the plants, and was taken by the way the sunlight hits petals midday,” she said. “In short, the show is inspired by place, petals, and stars.”

Admission to the Revelstoke Visual Arts Centre is a $5 suggested donation, and members get in free. For more information about this month’s exhibits, events and workshops, visit revelstokeartgallery.ca.
