Astrological Effigies by Rebecca Adey, Opening Reception at curio.
2026-07-03 17:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | CURIO. GALLERY & CREATIVE SUPPLY, 111 N. Prince St., Lancaster, PA, 17601, United States
Join curio. Gallery & Creative Supply for the opening reception of Rebecca Adey’s new work focused in soft sculpture and 2D papercut collages on Friday July 3rd 5:00-8:00pm!
Meticulously crafted and neat as a pin, Rebecca’s artworks are a playful yet serious interpretation of her subjects. The collection is focused on a connection to the Zodiac as well as other astrological symbols, animal guides, and flora from multiple cultural influences that have also observed and been fascinated by the night sky.
Appreciating that there are many ways to speak to the relationship we have with the cosmos, her thoughtful representations respect the centuries of learned understanding and tradition across her collection of 12 pieces while staying true to her unmistakable aesthetic vocabulary.
