Simplicity Made Sacred

Simplicity Made Sacred:
Uncovering Embedded Symbolism in Classical Still Life
Tyler Pack

I love the simplicity and yet poignant symbolism associated with still life paintings, and the beauty and form of simple objects, be it a piece of fruit, vegetable, or a composed display of objects.

I love the accessibility and depth of still life painting. What may seem like a simple composition for one viewer, could actually hold a depth of meaning to another. It can be appreciated all the same by both parties. I feel the simplicity in symbolic objects has a lot to say, but can do so without a lot of pomp and circumstance, and is open to interpretation of the viewer.

Tyler Pack's original art show "Simplicity Made Sacred (Uncovering Embedded Symbolism in Classical Still Life) " held February 2026 at Havenlight Gallery in University Mall, Orem, Utah.

Opening Night - Thursday February 5th, 6-8 PM
