Spirituality in the Natural World – a new photography exhibit at Robert Mondavi Winery
A new fine–art photography exhibit at Robert Mondavi Winery "Ancient Textures and Sacred Landscapes" explores the integration of religious architecture within the environment, primarily in Asia, and their symbiosis over time. By using the 3-panel triptych format, Napa Valley photographer Teri Sandison captures the “inevitability of imminent change, which is inherent in nature and in all existence.” The exhibit in the Vineyard Room at Robert Mondavi Winery in Oakville begins January 11 and continues through March 6. Open to the public from 10 am to 4 pm daily.
