Please contact education@tritonmuseum.org Your Instructor Saswatee Chatterjee Hello! I'm Saswatee Saikia Chatterjee, an artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area, California specializing in watercolor, oil, graphite and mixed media to create inspiring paintings - both realistic and imaginary. I have been practicing art for 20+ years and also enjoy teaching the creative community. My artwork has been represented at both international and local art galleries and exhibitions. I’ve always been fascinated by nature and story books since I was little. Often, I would delve into my imagination, thinking about subjects with my own creativity and colors. Art has been a constant source of passion and inspiration to me and I believe that art empowers our creativity and propels growth in all spheres of life. From being born and raised in the midst of the mountains and greenery of Assam, India to continuously being inspired by my parents who are exceptionally ardent creative people in the field of art and literature, my creative imagination is thus a conglomeration of such upbringing and experiences. Currently, I live with my husband and two kids in the beautiful state of California, and love to spend my free time enjoying the outdoors, gardening, hiking and listening to music. I get my greatest inspiration from nature and its scenic beauty and life. My artistic expressions are a celebration of life and hope. Generally, I work with various mediums with a focus on watercolor and oil/acrylic painting. I enjoy being able to contribute and enhance reality in its simple expressions and imaginative interpretations.

Unlimited Imagination Gabriel Coke MAY 3 - AUG 10 Will be on View in the Marquee: Seaside Circle Ducks, 2021, oil on wood Cowell Room Gallery < Back Overview Gabriel Coke is native to Northern California and the Pacific Northwest. Gabriel is a father, a practicing artist, a teacher and advocate for his students. He enjoys teaching and giving lecture demonstrations. Gabriel pursued private studies in ateliers since the mid 1990’s. He began in Seattle, Washington and continued to Santa Fe, New Mexico, France, Norway and New York City. From those many years of study he acquired the knowledge to become a well practiced artist and teacher. Gabriel taught constantly in his own atelier from 2012 to 2020. For a decade Gabriel’s life has been devoted to working inside a studio that developed its own unique community. Knowledge, friendship and family have been combined with a world class field of professional teaching artists. As an Atelier Program Director Gabriel benefits from being a father to two incredibly gifted teenage children. Gabriel’s teaching philosophy begins with creating an ideal studio environment. He wants students to be in the best possible position to get the most of their potential. Gabriel is highly motivated to prepare for each class with a passionate love for detail and forethought. The atmosphere in the studio is part of a successful formula. Students are always given expert instruction by lecture and demonstration and they are given a healthy amount of personal space and freedom. Students focus and work for long spans of time. The results are truly remarkable as the achievements of young students are often far greater than is expected. Hundreds of students have worked for several years in small groups and many are currently attending art schools and colleges in the United States and abroad. Some have even finished college and have families, and still regard their time in Gabriel’s atelier as very fortunate. Artist Statement More coming soon! Previous Next

JAN 25 - APR 27Local artist Laurus Myth debuts Portals and Passages, her first solo exhibition at the Triton Museum of Art, 1505 Warburton Ave. (January 25 - April 27, 2025.) Portals and Passages is a reflection point, weaving together Laurus’ portfolio of work across disciplines. From vivid colors, patterns, and layered paintings evolving into sculptural forms, Myth leans into art to tell stories of connection and relationship. Myth’s visual language is influenced by nature, technology, and intuition as they use symbols to decode their experience. Portals and Passages transforms Triton’s Warburton Gallery with works that draw viewers through moments of connection. This expansive body of work bridges dualities: technology-nature, movement-stillness, internal-external, and day-night.

About the Artist Laurus Myth is an Asian-American interdisciplinary artist raised in Silicon Valley. A born innovator, Myth follows a creative and intuitive path as she fabricates and curates intentional spaces. Drawn to sacred architecture and mental landscapes, her work is colorful, symbolic, and deeply immersive. Myth’s experiential practices birthed several installations she calls “Social Magic.” Visually drawing– these playful and often temporary installations invite us to connect with our narratives and become part of a larger story. The artist turns the museum's gallery into a spatial story with codes and keys leading us to places unseen. Portals and Passages distill the last decade of Social Magic into new queries, forms, paintings, and sculptures. Previous Next

JAN 18 - APR 19Although Marc D’Estout is now primarily an object maker, his formative art career was rooted in conceptualism and installation. Later his focus shifted to art furniture, which eventually became more conceptual and less functional, until he pivoted to making purely sculptural objects. This exhibition begins at the end of that pivot. Formed in succinct visual dialogues, D’Estout’s minimalist sculptures and drawings often subtly reveal a dark humor or uncanny, subliminal associations. The artist thinks of his current works as sculptural haikus–formalist reductions. In conceiving them, he experiments with imagery in response to observations of social and cultural memes, personal (mis)communication, politics, or pop culture. His life-long love of automobile and aviation design is also integral to his visual language. While concept drives his imagery, D’Estout is equally obsessed with using traditional labor-intensive processes to manifest his vision. He has a deep connection with materials and process, predominantly the challenging skills of hand-shaping and fabricating sheet metal forms. Shaped parts are created primarily by hammering flat metal into a sandbag or over curved metal stakes and sometimes manipulated with other specialized tools. The parts are then joined by welding and finished by filing and sanding seams, most often so expertly as to purposefully give the illusion of a single form. Surfaces are uniquely finished with either paints or patina. The application of D’Estout’s vision through these specific hand-crafted processes is uncommon in the context of contemporary art. D'Estout is also a highly skilled draftsman, and his drawings often play off his sculptural forms or act as studies for them. In yet another body of work, he conjures up sculptures through cleverly repurposing and altering found objects, sometimes combined with new, hand-crafted components. This twenty-year survey of Marc D’Estout’s work is evidence of his commitment to constant evolution in his creative output through his inquisitiveness, intelligence, finely honed aesthetic sensibilities, and mastery of his chosen mediums.

D’Estout has also served as a juror and guest curator for numerous galleries and arts organizations throughout California. Previous Next

JAN 11 - APR 19Born in Oakland, California, Nathan Oliveira was a leading artist in the Bay Area Figurative Movement. Oliveira earned his bachelor's and master's degrees in fine art from the California College of Arts and Crafts (now California College of the Arts) in San Francisco. He was a professor of art at Stanford University for 32 years. The artist created representational works influenced by the abstract expressionist style and is widely recognized for his solitary figures. Aside from this subject, the artist also depicted animals, notably birds of prey, nudes, masks, and faces. Oliveira created his artwork in various mediums including painting, drawing, printmaking, and sculpture. The Triton Museum of Art is pleased to present a collection of the late artist's works, curated by his son Joseph Oliveira, for view in two of our exhibition spaces. This selection of artwork will include works on canvas and paper as well as sculptures.

The Triton Museum of Art would like to extend its thanks and appreciation to Joseph Oliveira for making this exhibition possible. About the Artist By John Seed Oliveira’s invented forms live just outside the realm of possibility. The artist Nathan Oliveira (1928-2010) liked to say that he thought of himself as an abstract artist whose work “had to be about something.” That “something,”—most often a human figure, but sometimes an animal, wing, head or mask—was the physical manifestation of Oliveira’s poetic imagination; an invented form that lives just outside the realm of possibility. Over the long span of his career, Oliveira worked in a variety of media including painting, drawing, lithography monotype and sculpture, challenging himself to create forms with an air of mystery that allowed room for his viewers to find their own meanings. “I set it up to the degree that it gives you something recognizable to interact with,” he once offered, "and if you’re creative, you create your own metaphor.” The works on view at the Triton Museum, selected from the artist’s estate by his son Joseph, will present examples of Oliveira’s evocations of form in both two and three dimensions. In the Cowell Room Gallery oil paintings ranging from small studies of faces to monumental canvases depicting Stelae will demonstrate the artist’s engagement with the flexibility of the oil medium. In the Triton’s Rotunda, where more works on paper will be featured, examples of the artist’s Imi and Santa Fe watercolors of female figures will join a few works of unique figures from the 1960s and 1970s. Olivera’s fluid watercolors, in which he allowed the paint to form rivers and pools that soak into the paper then coalesce into figures, are among his most distinctive inventions. A selection of bronzes, found in both galleries—including masks and figures—will show how Oliveira’s painterly sensibility remained tangible in the sensitive surfaces of his three-dimensional works. Committed to the idea that making art involved finding unique forms Nathan Oliveira: Variations of Form will offer a fresh opportunity for viewers to encounter the myriad forms of his personal universe and appreciate them on their own terms.
