Nashville mixed media artist Jared Freihoefer shares with the community a love of text and books through The Magic Word. His new work incorporates collaged pages from donated books, mixed media figurative and portraiture imagery, and text from thoughts collected from the community.

Books serve as tangible proof of shared ideas. It is only through the sharing and propagation of these ideas that we are able to grow and mature as a community and as a society. The collection of stories presented in the artwork reflect the collection of stories being played out within our community. In the same way the concepts we read about transform with our interpretation of them, Jared will be literally transforming the books into new and innovative solutions. The Magic Word exhibit and installation at Blend Studio will create awareness for the need of preserving literacy and ideas shared through text. The community is invited to become directly involved in the creative process by donating books.  We encourage the public to contribute to the project and interact with the bookshelf by bringing books to the studio during regular hours, as well as the opening reception during the First Saturday Gallery Crawl on November 7.

Opening Reception: Saturday, November 7, 6:00pm-9:00pm during the First Saturday Gallery Crawl

Artist Talk: Saturday, November 21, 1:00pm-2:00pm
