Opening Reception: Thursday, September 12 | 5 PM - 9 PM | BROMO ART WALK

Maryland Art Place (MAP) | Gallery Hours | Tuesday - Saturday | 12 PM  to 4 PM

Maryland Art Place (MAP),  in partnership with Lumina Solar, is excited to announce reGenerate, an upcoming exhibition exploring the dynamic, controversial and multifaceted concept of "energy." Through a diverse range of artworks, themes such as the shift towards renewable resources, the tension between tradition and modernity, and the ways in which energy influences our environment  and informs our perspectives are explored. The selected works reflect on energy as a physical force and a symbol of transformation, sustainability, and creativity.

A significant component of the exhibition is the inclusion of reimagined solar panels, transformed through creative artistic interventions.  Donated by Lumina Solar, the solar panels  offer the potential for artistic practices to contribute to the energy conversation in unique ways. The reimagined panels also raise awareness of  the implications of energy consumption, and the environmental impact of different energy systems - to include the waste they create,. reGenerate further  underscores the importance of rethinking our relationship with our energy resources and how those sources integrate  into contemporary society.

Join us on Thursday, September 12 from 5 PM to 9 PM in celebrating the opening of this exhibition held in conjunction with the BROMO Art Walk.
