Blockfort is hosting a one weekend pop-up exhibition with works by artist Elijah Kleman. Moved On features a series of paintings that showcase historic sculptures amidst rural landscapes. This dichotomy illuminates both the pride and decay of rural communities. The artist comes from a rural background, and this reflection is both meaningful and personal.

”These paintings draw from rural life and the changes time brings. The statues symbolize different ideas, like decay and transformation, leaving their meaning open to the viewer. I also experimented with size, scale, and the play of light and shadows on landscapes.”

The exhibition will be on view in the Blockfort flex space both Friday September 6th and Saturday September 7th. An opening reception will be held along with the Surviving exhibition (in the main gallery) on Friday September 6th from 6-8pm.
