Porto Vista Hotel Gallery Artist: Samantha Louise Marett 

Exhibition on view February 12 - April 8, 2018 

Location: Porto Vista Hotel Lobby, 1835 Columbia Street, San Diego 92101

In collaboration with Porto Vista Hotel, 1805 Gallery is pleased to announce Samantha Louise Marett as the new exhibiting artist in the Lobby Gallery from February 12 to April 8, 2018. The series of abstract paintings on display were created by Marett while in residence at 1805 Gallery in January 2018. The paintings examine her most vulnerable thoughts and experiences that are accompanied by text that reveals a fragile and personal memory. Through bold brushstrokes and vivid multi-textured pigments, Marett revisits memories of romantic relationships, financial struggles and insecurities in order to reclaim those moments as opportunities for personal growth and self-love.  Marett aims to reframe vulnerability as a strength rather than a weakness.
