Artists Rafi Perez and Klee Angelie moved from Florida to Oil City in the midst of the pandemic and have set up their home base in a yellow house they call “The Sunflower House.”

Now the artists, who are prolific social media posters and internet creators with videos and music showcasing their crazy takes on life living as perpetual creators.

Next Friday they will give the area a full introduction to their work in an exhibition opening at the Graffiti Gallery in Oil City. They claim it will “knock your socks off.”

They are planning a bit of a retrospective with some work they have never shown before as well. Klee’s jewelry will be displayed with Rafi’s paintings and sculpture pieces. They will also be showing fresh work, some done right in the gallery itself.

The show runs through August featuring a few happenings, art creations, giveaways and several streaming opportunities to join them from afar. They are packing a lot into the month beginning with the opening reception from 6 to 8 p.m.  on August 5 featuring music, food and drink.

The following day they will welcome visitors to the gallery from noon to 6 p.m. to watch them create their work as well as their music. They promise to be available for engaging.

“Enjoy conversations about their travels, art, and why they moved to this amazing area,” they said in a press release. If you can’t attend this event they will live stream from 1 to 2 p.m.

The following Friday, August 12, they will be back in the gallery showcasing their work beginning at 3 p.m..
​Then at 5 p.m. they will perform some of their original music.

“This laid back concert will be like hanging out with two friends while they sing and play guitar,” they said. The music too will be live streamed.

The following day Rafi will read from his books and be around to sell and sign copies. The gallery will be open from noon to 6 p.m. with readings from 4 to 5 p.m. The readings will also be live streamed.

The following week, August 19 and 20 they are hoping Bridgefest, a two-day music festival in Oil City, will bring many more visitors to the gallery. 

August 27 the doors will be open from noon to 6 p.m. for the show’s final day.

“We will be hanging out talking about art, life, and anywhere else the conversations take us” they said. “We will also be doing some giveaways that day as a big thank you to everyone that came to our exhibition.”
