On Saturday, July 16, 2022, join artists Hiroko Yoshimoto, Katherine Chang Liu, W. Scott Miles, and Tori Tasch at the Santa Paula Art Museum for the premiere of "Hiroko Yoshimoto: New Works" featuring "Impending Storms", a collaborative art installation by Blue Marble Art Collective. Yoshimoto's newest artworks represent the Ventura artist’s continued work on her long-running “Biodiversity“ series, an output that amounts to nearly 300 paintings and sketches which speak to Hiroko's concern for the ever-growing threat to biological diversity. Many of the artworks will be available for purchase.

Yoshimoto recently teamed with fellow environmentally-conscious artists Liu, Miles and Tasch to form Blue Marble Art Collective. The group creates mixed media art and installations that put a spotlight on the looming dangers of significant loss of species and biodiversity.

The premiere party will include a special musical performance by Karen Pecht. Wine, beer and hors d’oeuvres will be served. Admission to the premiere is $5 for SPAM members, and $10 for non-members.
"Hiroko Yoshimoto: New Works" and "Impending Storms" will be on view at the Santa Paula Art Museum July 16, 2022, through November 6, 2022.
