Azalea: Answer the Call of Florida’s Forgotten Mystical Spaces
June 14, 2024 – August 25, 2024: Entel Family Gallery
Step into Azalea and be transported to a lush, earthy space where strange tokens glimmer through the trees. These obscure shrines, left behind by seekers and wanderers, transform everyday items into sacred aspects of an unknown ritual. The amber glow of the setting sun reveals a path through deepening shadows, where an eerie silence is broken only by occasional hooting owls. Feel the mystical energy of Florida’s timeless magic and mysterious promise as you explore her swampy interior.
