Together We Fly


Troy Simmons' Artwork for "Together We Fly"
 Here's a preview of my piece in the Audrey Love Gallery in the Bakehouse Art Complex
The exhibit "Together We Fly" opens this week with a special Art Basel Exhibition Preview from 7p.m. to 10 pm at 561 NW 32nd Street, Miami!

The focus of this exhibit is the transformation of a utilitarian object into a work of art! This allows artists to go beyond their usual medium while presenting individual artistic views and ideas. This exhibition will make you fall head over heels for the BAC and its artists.

Exhibition will be on view through 1/11/14
