Alberta St., opens its January show with a reception for the m onth’s featured artists on Saturday, Jan. 4 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. In the Main Gallery, Shannon Passon presents her recent encaus tic and mixed media work, Connec tivity. Her exploration spans the more physical and tangible forms of energy creation to the ways we are connected on a molecular level. Sam Hingston, a sculptor work ing in primarily wood and various media, focuses on capturing things like motion, an exerted force, or a particular feeling. In Guardino’s Feature Area, Chi M eredith’s egg tempera paintings range from detailed narrative works to non-objective images. In her paintings she places people, ani mals, and objects in situations that can be incongruous and sometimes ironic or humorous. ‘Every New Way, ’ an encaustic painting by Shannon Passon.
