Morton Fine Art presents the solo exhibition « Third Eye Open » by mixed media artist Amber Robles Gordon.
Robles Gordon is known for her use of found objects and textile to create assemblages, large-scale sculptures and installations. Her work is representational of her experiences and the paradoxes within the female experience. The fouur mixed media canvases in “Third Eye Open,” represent an internal conversation about the inter-connectedness of human life, from the infinitesimal individual to the expanse in which our universe exists.

She completed her Masters of Fine Arts from Howard University in November 2011, where she has received annual awards and accolades for her artwork.

Additionally, she has been commissioned by the Smithsonian Anacostia Museum, Luther College, WETA Television, Al Jazeera, The Kojo Nnamdi Show, Howard University, David C. Driskell Center, the Phillips Collection, the African American Museum in Philadelphia and Mc Daniel College to teach workshops and present and speak about her artwork.
