The premise of Living Room Opera revolves around the interplay between life and art, challenging the conventional notions that the two exist separately.  The exhibition’s purpose is to suggest that life and art share a common fabric, woven with Mistakes and Honesty and Wonder and Villains and Romance and Tedium and Grandeur and Tragedy. Revealing the concealed connections where art and life converge.  To really consider the landscapes and vistas before they're on the canvas, the quiet moments before a still life and who once sat at that table or put the cigarette in the ashtray. The faces that linger in our memories, now in the Living Room Opera. In regards to work - draw inspiration from the nuances of existence. Themes such as the performative amongst the mundane (think suburbia, the nuclear family with a perfect lawn), the extraordinary in the banal (the natural world), unexpected moments of drama, grandeur in simplicity, and other subtle elements may naturally find their way into your art that refer back to unnoticed magic in everyday life.
