For this I believe these somewhat overwhelming pieces give the art a larger voice.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Kiara Castro: \u201cThrough digital photography and analog processes I create works that convey the struggle, pain and hardship I and others like me have encountered, while simultaneously celebrating Latinx heritage.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>John Cooper: \u201cYou spend hours laboring over a drawing that will be gone in a day or two, washed or blown away, trampled by feet, cars and bikes. That\u2019s the fate of all street art. So, after collecting a few digital images, I just walk away to draw another day.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cathy Lapsley: \u201cI work with pastel, collage, assemblage and mixed media.&nbsp; I enjoy repurposing materials. I will sometimes use natural elements in my collages. For example, tree bark, feathers, rocks, shells and even a broken bird\u2019s egg.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Amanda Ontiveros: \u201cI find art is not very inclusive for the blind, so I aim to make art available to bigger part of society. Making artworks that are meant to be touched or handled, which they can feel, is important in creating an all-embracing experience for more people.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each received a $250 stipend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seven years ago, the Yakima Arts Commission, an advisory group appointed by the Yakima City Council, developed the Windows Alive! idea to harness the creativity of Central Washington artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following a submission and evaluation process, the above artists were chosen to be part of the latest &#8220;Windows Alive!&#8221; exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yakimawa.gov\/media\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/6\/files\/sites\/6\/Windows-Alive-Exhibit-Installed-News-Release.pdf\">Windows-Alive-Exhibit-Installed-News-Release<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yakimawa.gov\/media\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/6\/files\/sites\/6\/Windows-Alive-Exhibit-Installed-News-Release.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download>Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new Windows Alive! exhibit is now on display in Downtown Yakima.
