Within: Looking Beyond the Surface exhibits a selection of paintings and drawings by Atlanta portrait artist Martin Pate. This exhibition focuses on the delicate approach needed to create sights of contemplation, introspection, and meditation without fixating on the human face. Pate’s art, including portraiture, still life, and landscape, urges viewers to gain an appreciation for the simple, serene instances in life. Figures gaze into the distance, apples sit alone, and chairs are left empty, all of which evokes peace in solitude and the beauty of having just a moment to think.
