This retrospective collection highlights 16 of Vicki’s ecojustice pedestal pieces from 2013 to the present.

Friday, June 2, 2023 at 11am
NY2CA Gallery

Please RSVP through Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/clay-and-earth-where-we-stand-vicki-gunther-at-benicias-ny2ca-gallery-tickets-620433722967

About the Exhibition: 
Artist Vicki Gunter’s home/studio, NY2CA Gallery, and many NCWCA members, live on Ohlone land where the Chochenyo language is spoken.“Shuumi means Gift in Chochenyo. The Shuumi Land Tax is an invitation to support the vital work of the Sogorea Te’ Land Trust, a small step towards acknowledging the history of genocide on this land and contributing to its healing.”  Vicki considers it a great honor to  collaborate with SF Baykeeper, an organization that defends the health of San Francisco Bay, its watershed, and Bay Area residents, holding polluters accountable. She was invited as the very first artist to exhibit her work as the inaugural venture of the NY2CA gallery in Benicia in a show that is also a collaboration with Greenpeace USA. Greenpeace is creating QR codes for visitors to further explore and contextualize each sculpture. “Alone we are a drop. Together we are an ocean.” Greenpeace.The abstract paintings of Co-owner Terry Twigg will be exhibited on the walls.
