Oracle

Union Hall is pleased to present Oracle, an experiential exhibition that positions art as a vehicle for introspection and guidance. Rather than simply viewing the work, visitors are invited to engage with them as oracular tools, asking questions, seeking insight, and exploring personal meaning. Across cultures and regions, oracles have been consulted during personal and political periods of contemplation, decision-making, and prophecy. Weekly Guided Oracle Experiences offer facilitated support for those wishing to delve deeper into a reflective journey.

Oracle brings together six female Colorado-based artists: Yazz Atmore, Faatma Be Oné, Linda Bishara, Rebecca Peebles, Sarah Tenney, and Harriet Woodman, whose work reflects their personal spiritual and creative journeys. Some of the works on view were created from the act of divine channeling, while others explore life lessons, healing, and play through various mediums, including ceramics, installation, collage,
drawing, and painting.

Every Saturday from 1-4 pm, visitors can make a reservation to move through the gallery blindfolded and are positioned in front of each artwork with guided volunteer support. Once visitors land on an object or artwork that resonates with them, they can remove their blindfold and contemplate if it holds insight to a question or thought the visitor has posed to themselves. The intention behind the Guided Oracle Experience is for visitors to gain a personal connection and even so far as a revelation in the process of using art as an oracle.

Reservations are required in advance and can be made on Union Hall’s website at unionhalldenver.org/events for individuals and groups of two people. The gallery will remain open for walk-in visits Wednesday through Saturday from 12-6 pm.
