“One day only eclipse pop-up exhibition at Canopy Austin, 916 Springdale Road, Atrium Gallery
Transmissions is the thematic provocation for the 2024 ecoartspace annual exhibition to be presented in person as a day-long pop-up event in Austin, Texas, and as an online gallery + printed Zines. With the upcoming eclipse happening across the United States on Monday, April 8, we will focus on artistic expressions illuminating conceptual and physical manifestations inspired by this powerful natural phenomenon—including current dialogue around upfitting the energy grid and energy equity—a somatic point of departure not to occur again in the Northern Hemisphere until 2044. The pop-up will include interactive guided meditations, eclipse tarot readings, art films featured in the Cosmos Cinema, a Solarities play and book signing, panel discussion, unique eclipse posters for sale, and moon/sun libations.
