< Back Jacqueline Boberg JAN 24 - APR 19 Edge of Silence About the Artist: With thirty years of exploration across watercolor, pastel, oil, and acrylic, I’ve continually sought new ways to express light. A decade in abstract mixed media reshaped my artistic vision, and my recent return to landscapes and still lifes merges contemporary experimentation with timeless observation. My landscapes are born from fleeting moments — a slant of light, a shift in color, a spark of inspiration that demands to be caught in the mind’s eye before it disappears. Working in acrylic allows me to chase that immediacy and not fuss around as the paint dries instantaneously. Each canvas becomes a dialogue between instinct and experimentation, between what I see and what I feel. In the studio, joy lives in discovery — the thrill of pushing paint, of finding new challenges in every composition, of not knowing exactly where a brushstroke will lead. I embrace the possibility of failure as part of the creative process. Like Silicon Valley’s mantra, I believe in failing big and failing often — because each “failure” reveals something unexpected, something truer. My goal is simple: to capture not just the landscape itself, but the energy of the moment that inspired it — alive, imperfect, and full of wonder. Until I move on to the next thing…. Previous Next

< Back Futbol: The Art of the Game Group Exhibition MAY 16 - AUG 2 Fútbol: The Art of the Game Athletics and sports have been a part of human history for thousands of years. As time has passed, the games have changed but one thing remains constant – community. Sports provides us with another means to come together, to collaborate, to share something exciting and meaningful with each other. Art has also been around for thousands of years, and to celebrate the upcoming FIFA World Cup* soccer games coming to Santa Clara this summer, the Triton Museum of Art is hosting a special exhibition combining both sports and art – Fútbol: The Art of the Game. Soccer, also known as fútbol, is a sport played by millions of people around the world. It’s also a sport that combines passion and community. This special exhibition features one-of-a-kind artwork from a talented group of diverse Bay Area artists. The exhibition is also a special fundraiser for the Museum. These skilled artists have given their time and talents to provide the Museum with donated works that corresponds with the soccer theme – their art, in their style, will either incorporate an actual soccer ball or a recreated one. All works will be for sale through the Museum, starting at the artists’ reception on May 16, 2026 at 12:00 pm, and through the duration of the exhibition.** All funds received from the sale of these works goes directly back to the Triton Museum of Art to help support our mission of art, community, and education. We wish to thank all of the participating artists – it is because of you, our community, that we exist and thrive. *The Triton Museum of Art is not affiliated with FIFA or any professional soccer or sports association. ** Artwork will be sold on a first come, first served basis. We will not be reserving works for anyone; they must be purchased directly from the Museum in person starting at the artists’ reception. If artwork is not sold at the reception, it will remain for sale through the duration of the exhibition. Any sold works will remain on view in the Triton Museum for the duration of the exhibition and may be picked up by the buyer from the Museum once the exhibition has concluded.

< Back Laurus Myth JAN 25 - APR 27 Portals & Passages: An evolution of paintings, sculptures, and social magic Local 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

< Back Khat Zorig & Kyle Dell'Aquila SEPT 28 - JAN 5 Energies Khat and Kyle are partners in life, business, and creativity. They explore the intersection of nature, humanity, and machines. Their work embodies the cross-section of internal and external energies with the shared mission of empowering those often overlooked. Khat’s energies focus on internal empowerment, nurturing resilience, and healing within individuals, particularly the underprivileged. On the other hand, Kyle's energies are channeled into external empowerment, manifesting through technological innovation and artistic expression. About the Artist: Our commitment is challenging the status quo and envisioning a future where creativity, technology, and courage intersect to shape our better world. This commitment was inspired and encouraged by our mentor, Bill Warner, a visionary who transformed the film industry. His influence motivated us to follow our energies and create ZORIG, which means "Courage" in Mongolian. It is not just a sci-fi movie and futureware brand; it embodies the spirit of bravery and the conviction to speak and act from the heart. Through ZORIG, we explore the power of science fiction as a medium to dream and visualize the future we want to live in - one that’s nature-loving, techno-optimistic, and humanity empowering. Movies profoundly impact shaping mindsets and influencing the collective imagination, yet the current state of the film industry disheartens us. Real stories are often overlooked, lacking diversity, and commercial interests frequently stifle creativity. Our mission is to disrupt this narrative by telling stories our way, inspiring change, and empowering the underrepresented. Our work extends beyond the screen into the tangible world of fashion. We have seen the devastating effects of the fashion industry on the environment, and we refuse to contribute to its harmful practices. Instead, we embrace a made-to-order approach, ensuring that every piece we create is a statement of power, style, as well as a commitment to sustainability and responsible consumption. Both through our futuristic Mongolian themes and our earth-loving designs, we hope to make people feel like powerful techno-warriors when they’re wearing our garments. As we continue to develop our sci-fi movie, we release snippets and showcase products that reflect the themes and values of our story. Each piece we create is a fusion of art, technology, and storytelling, designed to inspire others to imagine and build the future we all deserve. Previous Next

MAY 16 - AUG 9This series of animated films explores carbon and plastic materials in our environment. By documenting and transforming material experiments into animation, the works reveal how substances are shaped, altered, and circulated in our world. The exhibit invites viewers to consider the hidden relationships between carbon, plastic, and the environments they inhabit, highlighting the material origins and ecological impacts embedded within everyday substances. Plastic Ecosystem: Plastic Ecosystem follows the journey of “new marine life” in the oceans. Millions of tons of plastic litter the oceans, and we study them: the journey of a school of plastic spoons, the behavior of plastic bottles, the moods of plastic knives. This mockumentary captures a few surprising behaviors of plastic bags and forks that mimic natural wildlife. Split up into three different segments with the use of different lighting, this film is a vignette of the rich variety of “life” in this plastic ecosystem. Carbon Traces: Humans were once in harmony with nature but now exploit its resources. Overconsumption in all forms has led to an imbalance. As humans grow more disconnected, they face an existential crisis and strive to restore the balance.

< Back Dean Larson AUG 16 - JAN 4 Urban Visions: Life in Motion Artist Dean Larson was raised in Palmer, Alaska where he first learned painting under the mentorship of Alaskan Artist Fred Machetanz. After graduating from Willamette University in Salem, Oregon Dean moved to Baltimore, Maryland for graduate studies at the Schuler's School of Fine Art and Towson University. In 1997 the artist moved to San Francisco, CA. He has long been associated with the resurgence of the American Contemporary Realist movement. Dean has written books, been featured in numerous art periodicals, has mounted over twenty-five solo exhibitions, and has been featured in over fifty group shows in museums and galleries across the U. S. He is a well-traveled artist who thrives on diversity and is constantly searching for new subjects. He is adept with cityscapes, landscapes, portraits, and interiors. Through the use of compelling compositions and harmonious colors he draws the viewer into his canvases. Dean's commissioned portraits and studio paintings can be found in museums and other public collections in the United States and Europe. Larson also has taught painting (mainly cityscape and landscape) at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco since 2006. He maintains a studio near Mission Dolores, the original Spanish Mission in San Francisco. Larson has painted the portraits of Senator Ted Stevens which hangs in the United States Capitol in Washington D.C. and Senator Mark Hatfield which hangs at Willamette University. Larson's work is also included in the collections of the United States Institute of Peace (USIP), the Alaska State Capitol, Triton Museum of Art and Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery. For more information visit www.deanmlarson.com , or www.instagram.com/deanlarson07 About the Artist: Dean Larson Urban Visions: Life in Motion Over the past several years two central themes have consistently attracted and inspired my artist’s eye. The first motif is life in the city. Having relocated from Alaska and Maryland to California in 1997, the Bay area and in particular, San Francisco, became an instant source of diverse and compelling subject matter. From Russian Hill to North Beach, from Market Street to Golden Gate Park, the city that changes constantly presents new perceptions and subjects. The focus on what it means to be a contemporary realist is constantly at the forefront when planning new work. It’s never enough to simply copy what’s in front of you. There is a desire to go deeper and search for what is most significant and essential. Intentional soft blurs contrast with hard edges to have objects and figures come forth and recede and fuse to backgrounds within pictorial spaces. With my second subject, figures, I search for accidental moments where people reveal the variety of the human experience and also show glimpses of what it means to be living and working in modern society. Sometimes it is a lone figure and other times there is a group of figures where the relationships between the figures are closely observed, highlighting the gestures of each figure and the group as a whole. The search for mass shapes and abstract patterns that, by working through my painting process, eventually becomes more realistic, unique designs challenge and inspire me to keep painting each and every day.

Permanent Collection Gallery EXHIBITION The Punctum Void: A Miha Sarani Retrospective Miha Sarani DATES: JAN 20 - MAY 12 YEAR: 2024 Previously on view in the Permanent Collection Gallery < Back OVERVIEW ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ! Widget Didn’t Load Check your internet and refresh this page. If that doesn’t work, contact us. My work explores, and responds to the elements of everyday life - particularly by framing our collective existence, individual experiences, voyeuristic responses, and the idea of duality. I find playing with the formal elements helps me better visually represent these objectives. While the intention is to bring about an exploration of a dialogue with the past, I commonly engage in current issues; addressing cyclical occurrences throughout history, but with contemporary challenges. My art practice aims to create a juxtaposition of conceptual art and aesthetic value; thus visually combining what I believe to be the essence of art making as a philosophical pursuit. For this reason, reading of my work often includes both arbitrary and conventional signs, personal assumptions mixed with stylistic representation of post-modern content. My theoretical framing is to move my work beyond the hyped contemporary referent and trendy aesthetic which pay less attention to the content and more to approximation. My practice is also profoundly informed by my studies as an art historian, so I look to the old masters as well as new for inspiration. Still, I find myself most often returning to the works of Leonardo da Vinci, Rembrandt, Marcel Duchamp, Martin Kippenberger, Anselm Kiefer, Philip Guston and Neo Rauch. Modern viewers, I believe, have become accustomed to having art dissected and served to them - which tends to devalue the work and the process. Although I enjoy contemporary art and admire many of its practitioners, I strive to create something with a deeper significance; a bridge between the ancient rituals and modern audience.
