I Went to the Mountain . . .
2026-03-12 17:00 - 19:00 | ARTicles Gallery, 1234 Dr MLK Jr St N, Saint Petersburg, FL, 33705, United States
Join us THIS Thursday, March 12, at ARTicles Gallery from 5-7 pm for our opening reception of “I Went To The Mountain . . .” featuring new works by artist Carol Dameron.
***Parking for the exhibition will be available in the lot adjacent to ARTicles at 1234 Dr. MLK, Jr. St. N., and also in the lot behind Gayoso MedSpa at 1116 Dr. MLK, Jr. St N.***
Dameron, a St. Petersburg artist, brings her current exhibition, “I Went To The Mountain . . .” after a long hiatus. The exhibition reflects what she describes as a strengthening growth period. “The one word I use to describe [it] is fervor. Combining realism with abstract expressionism enables me to move into a new spatial reality with fluidity.” Even more, it is an exhibition of deep personal significance. It is dedicated to her late husband, noted photographer Herb Snitzer, and includes the painting “I Went to the Mountain to Talk to the Sun,” which expresses the act of carrying someone’s ashes up to the mountaintop “and ceremoniously releasing them into the ether, to turn into stars.”
Dameron began her formal art education at the Sophie Newcomb College of Tulane University in New Orleans, then continued at the Louvre Museum and The Centre Americain in Paris. She also studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Dijon, France and the Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam, followed by four years of landscape and plein air paintings in the countryside of southern Portugal. Her paintings and drawings are in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg and the Polk Museum in Lakeland.
Inspired by Venetian Renaissance painter Giorgione, Dameron uses her figure and landscape works to convey the visible and invisible. “I attempt to express silence through situational and spatial ambiguity in order to reveal a deeper reality behind the surface of things,” she explains. Her works have been described as rich and luminous, allegorical, and a fusion of contemporary mythological and erotic vision with classical European techniques.
After Thursday’s opening reception, Dameron’s exhibition will remain on display at ARTicles Gallery until April 3.
