The Flame Within :: Metal Artistry Unleashed

A Biennial Collaborative Exhibition by ACCI Gallery, Metal Arts Guild, & Northern California Enamel Guild

“As artists, we experience the flame within, the drive to create. As metal artists, we then unleash our skill and utilize flame to convert our creative ideas into visible form. In both inner and outer spheres, we must balance wild abandon with conscious working within the constraints of the material, time, and our craft. Often the result of the unleashed is an unexpected, unique piece of art.
?
Members of MAG, NCEG and ACCI will be showcasing their unique expressions in jewelry, sculpture, conceptual pieces, and works that explore every aspect of Metal. Ignite your own creativity with us as we unleash our Flames!”
