SUMMARY:“Dreamscapes” art by Daisuke Okamoto + Brenda Cibrian
DESCRIPTION:Artist Statement: Daisuke Okamoto\nDaisuke Okamoto’s work\, “OKAINA IMAGE” is an elaborate and involved system of ink line drawings representing identity and transformation\, exploring the cycle of life in the complex\, biomorphic narratives of the organic. \nDaisuke Okamoto was born and raised in Tokyo\, Japan\, and currently works and resides in Los Angeles\, California.  Okamoto’s art is heavily influenced by science fiction and psychedelic culture. Given his intense passion for repetitive line drawing\, Okamoto has been known to work over a year on a single piece. \nOkamoto partnered with Microsoft on a Microsoft Surface Pro 8 and made a mural for the ad campaign in 2022. And he has also done collaborative projects with PBS KCET in Southern California.\nOkamoto’s murals are in CA\, TX\, NV\, OR\, UT\, MI\, NY in the United States\, Tokyo Japan\, and Berlin Germany. \nArtist statement: Brenda Cibrian\nThrough paintings and murals I seek to make art that uplifts and creates connection within ourselves and with the world around us. My work starts with a feeling first then subject matter\, I then add in playful elements with a whimsical visual flair. I use surreal colors\, combine imagery that is in and out of focus\, with graphical\, symbolic shapes to tie compositions together. I like to explore themes of identity\, introspection\, core memories and nostalgia. Nature\, abstract shapes and people are recurring elements in my art and my influences come from my Mexican American upbringing in South Central as well as early 2000s internet culture. \nApril 3rd – May 30th\, 2026\nReceptions: First Friday\, April 3rd\, 5-10pm\nReceptions: First Friday\, May 1st\, 5-10pm \nHours:\nSaturdays 1-5pm\nEvery first Friday of the month 5-9pm\notherwise by appointment

SUMMARY:Edges of Attention
DESCRIPTION:GearBox Gallery presents paintings by the 2025 Juried Show winner Javier Arizmendi-Kalb\, and ceramic sculptures from guest artist Susana Arias\, in Edges of Attention\, April 16th through May 23rd. Artists’ Reception is Saturday\, April 25\, 1 – 4pm. \n“Edges of Attention” brings together the work of Javier Arizmendi-Kalb and Susana Arias in a shared exploration of structure\, gesture\, and the threshold between control and intuition. Across painting and sculpture\, the exhibition engages in a spatial dialogue where perception shifts—where what is seen directly is only part of what is felt. \nArizmendi-Kalb’s large-scale paintings\, each rising to six feet in height\, operate as immersive environments rather than images\, occupying space with both physical authority and emotional immediacy. Suggesting refracted light and architectural spaces\, planes of color\, linear scaffolding\, and gestural marks collide and cohere\, hovering between construction and improvisation. \nIn conversation with these expansive canvases\, ceramic sculptures from Susana Arias’ Tree Series rise from four to over six feet tall. These works do not depict trees; they extract their presence. Minimal yet grounded\, they quietly shape and divide the surrounding space while rings\, joints\, and variations in surface suggest time embedded within the material\, evoking cycles of growth without literal narrative. \nGearBox Gallery: 770 West Grand Ave\, Oakland.\nGallery hours:  Noon to 5pm Thursdays\, Fridays and Saturdays
