Exhibition Dates Online: January 1 - 27, 2024ABOUT THE EXHIBIT
Juniper Rag’s virtual exhibition UNBOUND showcases a dynamic group of contemporary artists selected for risk‑taking, skill, and innovation in their evolving practices. The exhibition highlights how rapidly the art world is changing, featuring creators who incorporate edgy, avant-garde approaches and new ideas into their work. Among the selected artists is Colleen Hoffenbacker, recognized for her ability to fuse tradition with experimentation and to explore the intersection of natural and digital forms. UNBOUND celebrates the freedom of experimentation, the inclusion of new concepts in art making, and the courage to push personal boundaries — qualities that define the artists presented in this collection. A recent feature in Art Verité highlights Colleen Hoffenbacker’s contributions to current artistic discourse.
Artist Statement
“I hope my work encourages other artists to stay curious — especially when the tools are changing faster than the rules. There’s room to shape what comes next.”
CURATORial Statement
“Art-making extends far past what the eye sees in two or three dimensions. When artists record themselves, intrinsically, a magical exchange is made between the creator and the viewer. A part of their inner persona is presented publicly for others to view, discuss and critique in ways that leave them vulnerable. This gift of art is a gift from the self to us and in creating this work, we view artists pushing their own personal limits of creativity.”
