"Landscapes in the Abstract" is a juried exhibition that runs from July 15-Aug 21, 2021 at the Northfield Arts Gallery
My Interstice series is featured. These paintings explore the spaces that intervene between things, thoughts, and time. Utilizing a uniformed 12 x 12 size the paintings, seen from a distance, engage the viewer with simple appealing blocks of color. Close examination reveals a swell of colors rising to the surface exposed in incised lines and deep translucent layers. The paintings convey a tension between constraint and connection, consistency and impulse, inevitability and ambiguity, and ultimately the known and unknown. These are the private spaces that exist everywhere and in everyone often only made visible through cracks that let the light shine in.
“Landscapes in the Abstract” also features work by Joel Froehle (ceramic wall sculptures), Lars Samuelsson (landscape photographs), and Kimberly Wetzel (charcoal on vellum drawings).
