Art MeetUp @Studio Montclair

Studio Montclair presents “Roadblocks,” an exhibition that delves into the concept of the barriers—both physical and metaphorical—that shape our societies and lives as individuals. Roadblocks will run from November 12 through December 11 at SMI’s Leach Gallery, 641 Bloomfield Avenue, Montclair, NJ.
The works explore how roadblocks are constructed, perceived, and sometimes dismantled. 2D, 3D, photographic, and digital artworks examine the ways in which the barriers in our lives often hinder connection, understanding, and progress and yet can ultimately foster positive growth.
These imaginative works encompass inventive materials and techniques ranging from Scrabble cubes and mosaics to collage and multimedia to capture the dichotomy of themes of separation and connection, limitation and possibility, resistance and change. Ultimately the exhibition not only reflects on the difficulties we face as human beings but also considers possibilities for positive renewal.
