People try to make human connections through their art, they pull from their own lives and use their hardships, trauma, and overall view of the world or state of it to inspire their art and reach out to people who may feel the same. When we come to places like galleries we can meet people who go through similar things we have in life, whether that's good or bad, and use those things to make something completely different and beautiful like art. The crowd and the art itself are so incredibly diverse, there’s always something for everyone, which is why we connect in these places.
The SCOPE Art Show, a contemporary art fair held annually in New York City, Miami Beach, and Basel, focuses on young galleries and emerging art, each include between 60 and 100 exhibitors who used their work to reach out and make those connections with people who may have had similar life experiences as them.
For Miami's Hosting in 2021 during Miami Art Week, we gain insight and view profiles from prolific painters, sculptures, and NFT creators in the industry. Artists by the likes of Dennis Klapschus, Raymond Stuwe, Victoria Citro and others speak on their inspirations, meanings behind their works, importance of digital art and more.
