"Do You Think Too Much Too?" is a one-day pop-up exhibition at The Hill Street Country Club featuring the work of artist Addy Lyon. From the gallery: Addy Lyon is an interdisciplinary artist located in Vista, CA. She creates art with the motive of personal healing while revealing her own truths in an array of mediums. She is very intrigued by using materials which are traditionally overlooked, highlighting the use of pre-existing materials like newspaper, fabrics and thread. There are many conversations to be had regarding mental health, societal norms and the feminine experience which she relays through creative expression. In hopes for viewers to think about these concepts she creates for herself while also holding space for others to have their own perspectives on the pieces she creates.

Aspiring artist and UCSD visual art student Heather Rosati is hosting an art event, showcasing local San Diego artists. This art show is a public event being put on in partnership with The San Diego Made Factory. Alongside the work being showcased by the gathered artists, The San Diego Made Factory will host their open studio day for their tenants. There will be a bar, live music, and food! The theme “Letters to You” was created to explore the text’s role in art. Not only must we consider who the viewer, or reader is, with such pieces, but we must also question the intention, the “why?”. Valentine’s day is a day of love and expressing that to one another. This is a day filled with much letter writing and much vulnerability. Around this holiday is the time I began exploring the theme of letter-writing, and the intimacy behind it. I found it to be an interesting fit for a body of work, circling back to the questions of whom/what is one creating/writing for, and why. Date | Saturday, April 30 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Location | San Diego Made Factory This event is free and open to the public. For more information, please visit hmrcreates.com or call the venue at (619) 817-5517.
