Banyan, by artist Andre Paul Croteau, captures our two sacred selves and interprets them through the lens of fiber and banyan form. It embodies the conflict between our spiritual and material selves. Natural hemp symbolizes our raw spiritual structure. Decorative fiber weaves throughout to represent the vanity we often allow to obscure our true being. Together, as in life, the two expressions intertwine in a complicated competition for primacy, creating a sculptural message of form, color, shadow and, most important, structural peace through balance.

A Peaceful Earth Experience is an interdisciplinary exhibition coming to Art Santa Fe from its premier at Artexpo New York. Celebrating the beauty and fragility of the earth around us, the Art Gallery Pure booth will surround visitors with a showcase of works conveying the urgency of our environmental crisis, address climate change, and look toward a peaceful experience on our planet. With a focus on women artists, Art Gallery Pure brings together a collaboration of artists who engage in creative exchanges with impactful messaging, creating sustainable fine art made with recycled materials including paper, glass, cloth, metal, reclaimed wood and building materials.

Tokens of Memory: The Miniature Portrait Project began last year and is naturally indicative of Duportai Garcia's body of work, consisting primarily of small format paintings, replete with concepts of token and memory. His interest in painting in miniature arises from the desire to make each of his works more intimate. The young Cuban artist, living in Mexico, seeks to achieve two main goals: to capture the personality of the subject in just a few centimeters, and, second, to rescue the miniature portrait from its steady decline since the 19th century. "Just as the history of the miniature developed largely on different pieces or objects for personal use such as watches, medallions, etc. I have tried to intervene on elements such as: cassettes, staple bars or makeup bases. If you enter a gallery and see my works on general view in the space, you will see only lights on the wall. I spend hours reducing dimensions to an inspired image of a memory, sometimes a portrait, a glass of wine, books or fragments of a pair of feet that one day will stop treading on this earth", said the artist.

Look for the Discoveries Collection labels throughout the show. Art Santa Fe's Curatorial Team has selected a group of their favorite discoveries—each one a great option at $1,000 and $3,000 or less. Of course, there are thousands of affordable pieces of world-class art and on-trend, highly collectible works from across the U.S. and around the world at the show. Are their picks your favorites, too? Walk the show to find each one.

Is it the artists' creativity, the colors, the images, the messaging — or a combination of it all that draws us to an artist and their work? Meet these amazing artists and check out what's happening when some of them do live demonstrations:
