We are proud to announce ‘Blooming Vessels’ a solo exhibition of works by Orange County based artist Trace Mendoza.

In “Blooming Vessels” the artist dissects his own art books, dissembling every page and collaging the works into a unique and new visual presentation. In these collages Trace weaves together elements inspired by skateboard graphics, punk rock, cartoons and various historical art styles. Each Blooming Vessel stands as a representation of the human condition, one that’s made up of different codes of reality.

Trace Mendoza (born 1986 - Orange County, CA) is an Orange County based artist whose current work centers around his relationship with his own art books. His work has been exhibited at SCOPE, The LA Art Show, Artist Republic, and numerous galleries. Companies such as Hurley, Wahoos and The Frida Cinema have commissioned him to create site specific murals.

Please join us on June 10 from 6 to 9 pm to see the world through a lens of a young man that is experiencing an enhanced visual journey.

“Blooming Vessels” will be available to view at A Blve Rose June 10 through July 8, 2023.

“Face-to-Face” a solo exhibition of works by Riverside based artist J. Carino is having its opening reception this Saturday, April 29 from 6 to 9 PM.

“Face-to-Face” is a selection from a series of portraits of q***r men from all over the world, drawn since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Initially, the drawings were created through one-on-one virtual sessions over FaceTime and Skype, or through q***r virtual drawing groups. As pandemic restrictions eased, the sessions were finally in person: face-to-face. Some are strangers, some are friends of the artist, and some became friends through the virtual portrait sessions. Drawing a portrait is all about a sense of connection with the subject, and during a time when we were all separated, the intimacy of these moments became even more important.

J. Carino (b. 1988, Colorado) is a Riverside, California-based artist whose work explores ideas of q***rness, identity, sensuality, and nature. His work has been exhibited internationally including solo shows at Auxier/Kline (New York) and Monti8 (Italy), and numerous group shows that include BEERS: London (UK) and Sow & Tailor (Los Angeles). He is a graduate of Parsons School of Design.

“Face-to-Face” will be available to view at A Blve Rose April 29 through May 27, 2023.

Playfully arranging plants within frames hung on the wall, in pots, and inside other objects Jesse is able to introduce the essence of nature to the viewer.

Jesse inspires and educates our community about the importance of preserving and appreciating our natural environment by encouraging them to explore the wonders that surround us every day.

Please join us for the an all day reception on April 22 from 12 am to 9 pm.
