Blackbird Framing is a custom picture framing business that’s been a part of the Ravenswood community for over 15 years, building a reputation for great design and craftsmanship that brings in customers from neighboring communities across Chicago and neighboring suburbs.
This year, Kimberly Leja Atwood of Elephant Room Gallery will be taking over the walls at Blackbird with their curated group exhibition, “~ ZODIAC ~ Archetypes of the Psyche”, which invites twelve artists to interpret the zodiac signs through the lens of psychological archetypes rooted in the collective unconscious.
Don’t miss Blackbird’s Annual Ready-Made Frame Sale either, where you can score up to 85% off retail prices! And the fun doesn’t stop there—during RAW weekend, Blackbird is teaming up with fellow ArtWalk artist Ginny Sykes to give you a discount on framing any of her art pieces purchased over RAW weekend.
“~ ZODIAC ~ Archetypes of the Psyche” is a group exhibition featuring local artists and curated by Kimberly Leja Atwood of Elephant Room Gallery. An opening reception with the artists will be held on Saturday, Sept. 13th from 5pm to 8pm and is free and open to the public.
“~ ZODIAC ~ Archetypes of the Psyche” invites twelve artists to interpret the zodiac signs through the lens of psychological archetypes rooted in the collective unconscious. Each artist contributes a work that is inspired by one of the twelve signs, offering a personal yet universally resonant exploration of identity and symbolism. The exhibition seeks to remove the layers of perception we hold of ourselves and others and reveal what connects us. Through a wide range of visual styles, these artists illuminate how introspection can become a path to empathy, connection and a richer understanding of our shared humanity.
Exhibiting artists are Cujo Dah, Delisha McKinney, Fantasía Ariel, Gabi Bozeman, Mike Monteleagre, Morgan Nicolette, Norma Ojeda, Rine Boyer, Shanna Zentner, Underseagravy, Zeye One and Zor Zor Zor.
