9 Artists Explore The Poetry Of Petals And Light

The Floral Whispers art exhibit offers a quiet yet powerful reminder of how natural beauty continues to evolve through the eyes of artists. On view from May 2 through June 27, and inspired by the stunning tree peony garden at Rockefeller State Park Preserve, the exhibition invites visitors to experience a striking collection of works rooted in one of nature’s most celebrated blooms. Bringing together a diverse group of contemporary artists, the exhibit reinterprets floral forms through painting, photography and mixed media.

A public reception will be held on Sunday, June 7, from 1:00pm to 3:00pm at 125 Phelps Way in Pleasantville, New York. Guests will have the opportunity to meet the artists, enjoy live music, and engage directly with the artwork in a beautiful park setting. The exhibition is curated by Lisa D’Amico, PhD, whose vision emphasizes fresh perspectives on how nature continues to inspire emotional and symbolic meaning in art.

Featured artists include Donna Aristo, Suzanne Auer, Jean Marie Bucich, Aprajita Lal, Cynthia Mullins, Chris Ross, Sharon Seidl, Morry Silbiger, and Sheila Terry. Together, their work highlights a wide range of interpretations, from delicate botanicals to bold, contemporary floral expression.

Gallery hours for the exhibition are Monday through Sunday, 9:30am–4:30pm, providing ample opportunity for visitors to explore the exhibit throughout its run.
