Join artists Elise Wagner and Gabe Fernandez for a talk and slide presentation about art, partnership, and place. Working side by side at the confluence of the Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean in Astoria, Wagner’s abstract encaustic paintings and collagraph prints explore layered natural systems, while Fernandez’s hyperrealist paintings capture the precision of light and observation.
Together, they’ll share the story of how they met, became engaged in Paris, and built a shared studio practice, offering insight into the balance of independent vision, creative dialogue, and life on the Oregon Coast. This is a ticketed event.
