The Boca Raton Museum of Art presents the new exhibition Sri Prabha: Resonator-Reanimator (on view now, through October 22). “Sri Prabha brings to light the tools of perception; and visitors who experience this tour de force at the Boca Raton Museum of Art will find an imaginative, multi-sensory panorama of art,” says Irvin Lippman, the Executive Director of the Museum.

Prabha masterminds these site-specific installations by fusing ideas from Vedic eastern philosophies and his visions of western science, to explore our connection to the natural world. Melded together, they land the viewer within a psychedelic multiverse of saturated colors. “The idea is for people to go through a portal and realize we are more similar than different, that all of these elements floating around space came together and created us,” says Sri Prabha. “We are all interconnected, and we can change our behavior to work together and collaborate. As civilizations, we like to think that we are different from each other, but we are really not. Our technology is changing rapidly, but our behavior has not kept up,” adds Prabha. Prabha’s works are in several private collections in Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco, Miami, New York, Washington, DC, and Copenhagen. His exhibitions include: the Florida Prize 2019 at Orlando Museum; Verge Art Fair New York; the King County Public Arts Program Seattle; Art Palm Beach; the South Florida Cultural Consortium at MOCA, the Museum of Contemporary Art in North Miami; and the Toronto Art Fair, among others.  Founded by artists, Boca Raton Museum of Art was established in 1950 as the Art Guild of Boca Raton. The organization has grown, now in its eighth decade, to encompass a Museum, Art School, and Sculpture Garden. As one of South Florida’s leading cultural landmarks, the Museum provides educational programs and a robust exhibition schedule to the community, and to visitors from around the world.
