Presence in Silence, Here and Now, and The Taqueria Taco Truck Project
Dr. Kevin Thomas
Dr. Kevin Thomas, an Oklahoma artist who teaches at Edmond Santa Fe High School, is currently hosting his solo exhibition at the PACC throughout March. With a diverse range of oil paintings, his exhibition explores the quiet spaces where silence becomes a presence rather than an absence. His traditional pieces illustrate serene landscapes meant for viewers to pause, while his abstract pieces translate those emotions into visual representations. Dr. Thomas invites viewers to linger, breathe and listen to the spaces in between both his traditional and abstract works.

The March Show is an annual juried exhibition organized by the Paseo Arts Association that showcases 35 local artists of various media. Juried by VC Torneden, a multidisciplinary artist herself, this year’s theme centers around “Here and Now,” with each piece being up to the artist’s interpretation.

The Taqueria Taco Truck Project: Clint Stone
The Taqueria Truck Project is the solo exhibit of Oklahoma City artist Clint Stone. Stone has been an exhibiting artist for 25 years showcasing works that show everyday environments through a fantasical, vivid style. Stone’s project blurs the lines between visual and performance art, commerce, and a sociological experiment underlining the societal role of transactions and the perceived value of art. The Taqueria Truck Project represents the culture of small food vendors and captures how art has real, substantial value to the human experience.
