Carbon Connection: Carbon is the basis of all life on earth. Carbon is the base of the ink
and visual artforms in this show. Our connections to one another are transmitted
through music, feeling, movement, visuals, words and more. How do these connections
form and flow in a time of physical isolation and distance? The brush and ink in the
hand of Aaron Jack has been tuned to explore those relationships. Carbon Connection
invites you to share the ephemeral moments of life in relating, connecting, and creating.
● The Scene
Enjoy more LIVE ART outside of the gallery where you can chat, dance to live-streamed
music and observe live painting in action! (small groups with distance)
Schedule your time!

heart, and his breath into an unexpected universe of connection and inspiration. As the whole
world goes online, a community of artists and art lovers comes alive. New forms emerge -

more. Carbon connections transforming digital divides.
