Overview
All my life I've struggled to get my business-minded parents to understand my creative talents. They would usually pat me on the head and leave me alone with my paints or pen and paper and just let me do whatever I wanted. I guess you can imagine the jealousy I feel reading that siblings Cecilia, Maryann and Patrick Hine were born into a very creative family (their parents had 11 kids!) and henceforth have become artists, sharing their unique talents in a collaborative exhibition, hinesight.
Each sibling has a different branch of artistic flair; Maryann is a graphic designer and visual artist who for over 20 years has produced sculptures, paintings, multi-media works – you name it; Cecilia is an award-winning painter whose oil work is inspired by Greek mythology; and Patrick, an acclaimed independent filmmaker.
In hinesight (geddit?), you will be able to view pieces from the relatives: Maryann's paintings inspired by Trees by Kilmer, Cecilia's surrealist furniture that involve ceramic antiques and mosaic, and Patrick's photographs from his travels in Prague and Moscow.
Blood may be thicker than water, but that doesn't mean the trio haven't let outsiders intrude on their intimate show – there'll be entertainment from related cellist Camilla Tafra and classical guitarist Steven Tafra, plus finger food and drinks.
You won't want to miss seeing this unique display, and if you do, in hinesight you will know you should have.
