Christina Kent: Day to Night

Jan. 9 – Feb. 29

View a solo exhibit by Christina Kent, the recipient of the Pence’s Emerging Artist Award 2023. Kent expands upon her observations of everyday life in the city in a new series of oil paintings that capture intimate scenes of daily life. She builds these compositions with an eye to the subtle nuances of light and shadow, using gestural brushwork to reveal the changes in the landscape from morning until night. 

Misuk Goltz: The World We Live In

Jan. 5 – Feb. 25

Misuk Goltz’s watercolor paintings convey a world seen through both her travels and daily life that is full of emotional resonance. Having used travel journals to record and expand upon her experiences around the world, she has a wealth of visual moments to share. This exhibit largely centers on her vignettes from these travels, alongside rural scenes from our region.

Joseph Bellacera: The Matter of Light

Dec. 8 – Feb. 2

View several series of work by Joseph Bellacera that reflect his interest in changing light into matter, and matter into light. In large-scale mixed media works and digital prints, the artist turns his observations of the natural world into intriguing configurations of color, pattern, and texture.
