Opening Reception: Live Forever and Never Die, Solo Exhibition by Grace Page
Thursday, July 02, 2026 | 5PM-9PM
Idaho Art Gallery | 702 W Idaho St #105 | Downtown Boise
Join us for the opening reception of Live Forever and Never Die, a solo exhibition by Grace Page. This evocative body of work explores the enduring symbolism of fruit trees as vessels of memory, inheritance, and personal history. Through abstraction, the artist examines the space where lived experience and collective meaning intersect, allowing familiar forms to dissolve and reassemble into layered reflections on family, labor, temptation, and belonging.
Based in Boise, Idaho, Grace Page is a contemporary painter whose work explores themes of memory, time, and perception through abstraction and fragmentation. Drawing from personal experience and everyday observation, she creates layered compositions that reflect the fluid nature of memory and the stories we carry forward. Her work has been exhibited throughout Idaho and Utah, inviting viewers to consider how meaning evolves through experience and recollection. Experience this new exhibition, meet the artist, and spend the evening immersed in thoughtful conversation and contemplation.
