“Out of the Blue” explores how imagination, history, and personal inspiration can transform a single color into something timeless and expressive. Featuring the work of Tim Lockheart, this exhibition highlights an artist whose creative vision is deeply inspired by fantasy, atmosphere, and historical influence.

Tim Lockheart, also known as Thomas Simpson, draws inspiration from the Victorian era, castles, knights, and prisms — blending old-world aesthetics with surreal and imaginative storytelling. His work reflects a fascination with timeless imagery, emotion, and the dreamlike spaces between history and fantasy.

Through his artistic perspective, Tim transforms visual influences from the past into expressive works that feel both nostalgic and otherworldly, inviting viewers into worlds shaped by creativity and imagination.

“Out of the Blue” invites audiences to experience blue not simply as a color, but as mood, memory, and atmosphere interpreted through different artistic mediums.

“Out of the Blue” explores how emotion, memory, and perception can live inside a single color. Featuring the work of Alisha Garfinkel-Gross, this exhibition reflects a deeply personal artistic journey rooted in healing, self-expression, and rediscovering creativity.

Photography found Alisha in high school and led her to study at the San Francisco Art Institute. After years working in the fast-paced world of advertising and PR, she slowly stepped away from creating personal work. Following a transformative mental health and healing journey, she returned to photography in 2025 and publicly shared her work again for the first time in thirteen years.

As a neurodivergent artist, Alisha’s work comes from a quiet and deeply emotional place — exploring how people can experience the same moments in completely different ways. Through photography, she translates feeling into imagery, capturing the way moments move, speak, and stay with us.

Alongside her artistic practice, Alisha works in creative production, designs album covers for independent bands, and draws inspiration from music, film, everyday life, and the communities around her.
