At BMA, we deeply recognize and cherish the significance of channeling life’s profound and darker emotions through artistic expression. That’s why we conceived our winter showcase, Shadows. This show serves as a way of expressing things often left unspoken like fear, pain, anger, sadness, depression, mental health struggles, and experiences of abuse. It’s a sanctuary for healing, a platform where art and creativity come together to navigate through emotions, including those hard to talk about in other settings.
We consider ourselves incredibly privileged to provide a nurturing space for a show of this nature, one that empowers individuals to bare their hearts and souls, backed by the unwavering support of a compassionate community. Shadows isn’t just an exhibition; it’s a sacred time where we invite our shadow selves to emerge and be acknowledged. The depth of this showcase may not resonate with everyone, and that’s perfectly alright. Given its content, Shadows is designated as an 18+ event, so we encourage all students and professionals above 18 to apply.
It would be our utmost honor to play even a small role in your journey toward healing. Allow us to stand alongside you in vulnerability, as we unveil our own shadow side, fostering connection and understanding through the shared language of art.
