Nina Joffey
Nina explores the theme of harmony in art through a multifaceted lens. Her inspiration as an artist is rooted in traveling and immersing herself in the vibrant tapestry of everyday life, people, nature and the exquisite beauty of flowers. While Nina experiments with several media and styles, her current favorite is oil in a semi-traditional style. She loves to paint cities and landscapes, seeing the beauty in simple things.  Each piece serves as a reminder that art is not just a reflection of reality but a bridge to greater appreciation and harmony in our lives. Nina’s award-winning work is exhibited in several Vienna and Reston galleries. She is a member of the League of Reston Artists and the Vienna Art Society. She participates in the League’s “Art in Public Places” project, where her work is exhibited in libraries, community centers and hospitals. She designed and painted benches that were auctioned for fundraising, as part of the Vienna Art Society project “Take a Seat Vienna.” For more information, visit  www.ninajoffey.com.

Eva Guna
This is the first exhibition for Eva Guna, an emerging artist with a distinct vision of a complex world. Influenced by Eastern religious traditions, particularly Hinduism and Buddhism, she strives to embody the concepts of balance and interconnectedness in her art. Utilizing both oil and acrylic mediums, she seeks to create a delicate balance through the dynamic interplay of light and dark, brightness and haze, reality and abstraction. Through careful manipulation of these elements, Eva evokes a sense of serenity and contemplation, inviting viewers to lose themselves in the interplay of color and form. Her goal is to create a space where viewers can find their own sense of harmony and engage in an emotional dialogue that transcends the canvas. Each piece is a journey into the depths of perception, a reminder of the beauty that transcends duality.
