Dear Friends,
Our Gallery is located at 599 9th Street North, Suite 309, with regular hours of 11-5, Tuesday-Saturday. This location is in the office bulding with First Horizon Bank at the corner of 6th Avenue North and 9th Street North. Please note 9th Street is also known as Tamiami Trail and US-41.
Harmon-Meek Gallery is pleased to present this solo exhibition for Migue Saludes - Waterscapes.
This exhibition features a selection of paintings centered around the theme of water. For nearly two years, the artist has dedicated himself exclusively to painting water, and studying its effects—scattering light, forms, and colors. The paintings in this exhibition are inspired by real-life locations the artist visited for inspiration, featuring scenes from Pennsylvania, Maine, Florida, North Carolina, and Arizona.
The title of the show alludes to the word "landscape" but also reflects the idea that these works serve as an escape from the tedium of daily life. As a landscape painter, Saludes turns to nature for inspiration and renewal. His time in nature is not only a source of artistic creativity but also a way to connect with his wife and son, who often accompany him on his trips. These journeys strengthen family bonds while offering the artist a refuge from the stresses and challenges of everyday life.
For Saludes, nature is a regenerative force. By painting these lived memories—these landscapes—he seeks to relive those moments and capture them in a medium that can be shared with others. His work promotes the idea of being present, appreciating the majesty of the world before us, whether in solitude or in the company of loved ones.
