For its March 2024 offering, Bermudez Projects debuts Of Flames and Shadows Gone Astray. An opening art party was held on Saturday, March 9, 2024. The group show serves as a multifaceted, cathartic confessional of love, loss, as well as perseverance. The show continues through April 6, 2024

With this exhibition, Julian Bermudez departs from conventional curatorship, and instead brings together deeply-resonant artworks as a means of addressing the challenges of his own life.
“In the last four years, I have experienced tremendous loss. Loss of love, family, friends, and home. Working through this has been a years-long process, resulting in my need for curating this show in order to fully grieve and heal,” says Bermudez. “This also allows me to push and expand the ways I approach the art of storytelling through curation.”

Through a range of mixed-media work — each incorporating fire as a material — the exhibition touches on our shared experiences of overcoming some of the darkest moments of life; reaffirming our enkindled spirit to thrive in the face of adversity. Impermanence, resilience, loss, and rebirth are explored through each artists’ work, inciting a deeper inspection and introspection of our personal and shared existence. The exhibition aims to leave viewers with a greater appreciation for triumph over tragedy; strength through sorrow; and healing after heartbreak.
Of Flames and Shadows Gone Astray
The group exhibition features the works of contemporary artists Francesca Bifulco, Malado Francine, Bryan David Griffith, and Cody Norris. Of Flames and Shadows Gone Astray does not point to, or illustrate anything specific that has happened in the gallerist’s life. Instead, it uses artworks in lieu of words, like a song or poem to tackle far-encompassing subject matter.
