Elemental Trance by Brian Michael Reed Closing Reception

Brian Michael Reed: Elemental Trance
Exhibition at the Birke Art Gallery, May 18 – June 19, 2026

Join us for the exhibition reception during the first Downtown Art Walk of the season on June 19, 5–7 p.m.

American multi‑media artist Brian Michael Reed brings his globally informed, symbol‑rich practice to the Visual Arts Center this summer. Known for his conceptual approach to pictorial anthropology, Reed draws from immersive experiences across China, Japan, Indonesia, Mexico, the Appalachian region, and Israel. His works activate the spiritual resonance of found materials and highlight shared cultural threads that bridge geographic and linguistic divides.
