Gallery 110 presents Echoes of Yesterday, a vibrant exhibition capturing the essence of dreams and memories through luminous artworks on glass by mixed media artist Sanjida Mity.

For Mity, the blueprint for a rewarding and fulfilling life lies in the quotidian minutiae, the spirituality of a humble mind, and the innocence that comes from authenticity and connection with one’s roots. Born in Bangladesh, her art is inspired by her South East Asian heritage, reflecting the earthiness, spirituality, Sufism, and celebration of nature that are central to Bangladeshi culture.

Working on the distinctive media of glass, Mity merges the colors and rhythms of life into a harmonious symphony with acrylic, alcohol ink, water, oil-based color, and other media. She says she uses the “beaming yellows, oranges, and rusts of hope; the tranquil beauty of coexistence between humans and nature in white, green, and blue; and the bravery and spirit of life in red.” Her work often features human figures and faces against surreal backdrops.

Her elements combine to form a bright, dreamy concoction that flows like the ragas of classical music, with patterns, lines, and shapes moving in an optimistic and rhythmic dance across the glass surface.

Sanjida Mity is an acclaimed artist whose work reflects her deep connection with her cultural roots and passion for exploring the beauty and harmony of life through art. Born in Bangladesh and currently a resident of Washington, USA, her unique glass paintings have been exhibited in galleries and art shows in Dhaka, Bangladesh, as well as in Washington, Oregon, and California in the USA.
