It’s been about a year since the last major urban fine arts exhibit was held in Atlanta. The pandemic has shut down many events, yet the arts community continues to thrive.
Fourteen Atlanta artists are sharing personal works in a new group exhibition that opened this month titled “Hidden Truths.” The exhibition asks two questions: “How did you deal with your mental health?” and “How do you define shadow work?” According to the exhibit’s curator, Courtney Brooks, shadow work is an examination of the inner self and an acknowledgment of the flaws that we may carry.
