Yonkers Arts is pleased to host the next Arts Speak event featuring Satish Joshi at the Blue Door Gallery, Tuesday, December 10th at 6:30 PM. Known professionally as only Satish, This Arts Speak event highlights his life, career in the arts, and his long connection with Yonkers. Working in the mediums of painting, sculpture and printmaking, he is best known for achieving unique effects through experimental techniques. He pioneered a singular printmaking process, which he has continued to refine over the decades. Even his painting methods are unconventional; he mixes acrylic modeling paste, gesso and oils to achieve his signature three-dimensional effects on the canvas. While Satish has produced a variety of series in a range of materials over the years, his work is unified by an exploration of light, color, dimension, texture, and a reverence for the forms of the natural world.
