Sujata Aher:

Sujata Aher in collaboration with poet, Aarti Ghanekar
Seth Moskowitz: The Magic of the Mundane –
Mindful Encounters with the Everyday World
Sujata Aher’s exhibit is a creative dialogue between two friends. The inspiration flowed both ways – some paintings grew out of words, and some poems were written in response to paintings. As close friends, this became a true exchange – of ideas, perspective, and voice shaped as much by their friendship as by art. What emerged is a conversation between image and language – each pushing the other further and exploring how art transforms when seen through another’s lens
Sujata Aher is a graduate of the Mastery Program at The Milan Art Institute and a proud member of Artworks Gallery in downtown Winston-Salem. Today, she is living her dream as a full-time artist creating meaningful paintings, connecting with people, and touching hearts through her art. She works in oils and mixed media. She travels across the country participating in art festivals exhibiting her work at shows nationwide.
Aarti Ghanekar is an amateur poet, working at the intersection of observation and reflection. She writes as a creative outlet and draws inspiration from everyday encounters with nature. Born in India, her writing carries cultural resonances that inform her imagery and voice. Now living in Winston Salem, immersed in its natural surroundings, she continues to explore creativity with a focus on women’s agency and lived experience.

Seth Moskowitz’s exhibit features new images that have emerged as he combined random pictures of ordinary objects, attractions and events he encountered by keeping his eyes open to the magical, everyday beauty that lies hidden in plain sight.
Seth Moskowitz is a Winston-Salem artist who creates photographically based art that rarely resembles photography. He has devoted himself full-time to what he calls “playing with pictures” since he retired in 2019 following a four-decade career in journalism and corporate public relations, both of which kept him constantly steeped in a world of words.
A poet, guitarist and songwriter from his early teens through his mid-30s, a long creative-writing dry spell eventually led Seth to discover a long-hidden passion for visual art.
Armed with a compact digital camera and a laptop computer, in 2004, he began to combine and transform photos into surprisingly interesting pieces of art. It proved to be the perfect escape from the constant cacophony of his workaday world – a way to enter a peaceful, magical place that is literally beyond words
