Tierra del Sol Gallery is proud to present Nature is Calling to Us, the debut solo exhibition of Terra Clendening. With vivid urgency and tender reverence, Clendening paints what she calls “a meaning to the word nature.” Her works on paper are alive, infused with an unruly wilderness expertly rendered in chaotic brushstrokes.
Nature is Calling to Us is abundant with offerings and outcry. This is art as praise and protest, a call to protect what remains. “Nature is calling to us, really calling,” Clendening says. “And when you hear her voice in the wind, or in the rain, in the storm—she is calling and you hear her. She’s right in front of you.”
Nature is Calling to Us opens Saturday, May 17th, with a reception from 6 to 8 pm. The exhibition is on view through June 28, 2025.

Tierra del Sol Gallery is proud to present All About Me, the debut solo exhibition of Jeffrey Rinsky.
Stepping beneath the metaphorical Big Top of Jeffrey Rinsky: All About Me, visitors are greeted by a joyous celebration dancing in rhythm with delightful absurdity. Electric color fields and striking lines fill Rinsky’s world from edge to edge, with his vigorous application of media echoing the chaos of creation. All About Me is a circus untethered by the laws of reality, governed only by the artist’s profound sense of whimsy.
All About Me is braided with elements of futurism, fantasy, and everyday life. One moment, Rinsky is locked in an intergalactic battle; the next, he’s conjuring golden afternoons spent with best friends. His titles read like short stories hinting at a greater saga. Comedy and tragedy meander a tonal tightrope, but Rinsky’s unbridled exuberance dispels the whisper of danger. Darkness exists, yes, but it is always amicably unmasked like a funny monster in a kitsch horror film. All About Me celebrates the artist’s uncanny ability to befriend anyone. It is a tribute to stories with happy endings and the beautifully eccentric spectacle of being alive.
Jeffrey Rinsky: All About Me opens Saturday, July 12th, with a reception from 6 to 8 pm. The exhibition will be on view through August 30th, 2025.
