"Emotions" Opening Artist Reception

Emotions will open to the public on Thursday, September  5, 2019 with a special artist reception coinciding with the weekly Scottsdale ArtWalk from 6:00-9:00pm. The evening will feature an opportunity to meet the featured artists and curator, along with light hors d'oeuvres and refreshments.

Royse Contemporary is thrilled to kick off their second year and new season  with “Emotions”, a small group exhibition exploring how feelings, expression of emotion, and knowledge through emotion is translated into artwork and the creative process. This exhibition showcases the work of five noteworthy artists including: Charmagne Coe, Dan Pederson, Diane Sanborn, Daniel Shepherd, and Casey Wakefield. Curator, Nicole Royse has selected an enthralling group of artists that have an incredible energy, originality, and a distinctive voice. Each artist creates alluring yet enigmatic work exploring emotions, showcasing each artist’s style, engrossing forms, and unique textures.

A striking collection of work from five talented artists that may appear aesthetically different but have an undeniable bond and vitality that connects their work. “This exhibition offers an eclectic selection of work with artists working in painting, collage, and mixed media, highlighting art that is visceral, authentic and engaging”, states Owner/Curator, Nicole Royse.
