Group exhibition at H Gallery in Midtown Ventura until Oct. 1

Growth is the fundamental objective of all biotic components, every factor requiring energy and sustenance for proper evolution. The work featured in this group exhibition draws equally from environmental experience, mass media, and sub-cultural positions while seeking to convey the often overlooked or undervalued messages of organic development and human influence.

18 artists explore the subterfuge and effect of their individual mediums, juggling immediacy of expression, perfection of surface, and ambiguousness of meaning.
