Julie Maynard’s ENTRANCE, opens on May 1st. Entrance’ is one of those words you can pronounce two ways. Does it mean a portal that gives access, or how something can absorb your attention? Hold both definitions in mind for Maynard’s solo exhibition, which is full of doors and windows as well as images of things that have drawn her in over the years.
“The eye is naturally drawn to openings,” Maynard says. “And we do become what we pay attention to.”
GALLERY I
Suzanne Lago Arthur
Artist and podcaster, Suzanne Lago Arthur, explores some similar themes with her solo exhibition, PORTALS & SANCTUARIES. Inspired primarily by her travels to Spain (defined as “Portals”) and the domestic interiors of her life (“Sanctuaries”), the latter painted mostly from direct observation which she considers a meditative practice. Many of the paintings have been painted in a limited palette which adds to the atmosphere of her work.
She is an artist who thinks deeply about the nature of perception, liminal spaces and the feeling of place. These profound themes are conveyed in her beautifully rendered oil paintings. To view more of Lago Arthur’s work, visit lagoarthurstudio.com
Both ENTRANCE and PORTALS & SANCTUARIES are on view May 1-31 with a reception on Saturday, May 2, 5-8 pm. You can also meet the artists during their TAG Talks on May 23, 3-4pm.
Lago Arthur will also be available on May 28, 3-4 for an informal talk.
