Transformation by Carrie O’Coyle, is a series of paintings inspired by emotional knots of life made of the thread that connects us all. The series emphasizes the delicate balance between being together and feeling apart. Each piece is a dynamic interplay of paint, texture, and emotion–layered, scraped, and reworked–reflecting the artist’s continual search for clarity amidst the chaos. The exhibit is in the Roger Hall Gallery till March 19th.
Collective Inventions by Teresa Meier features autobiographical self-portraits of the artist, where the surreal intertwines with the personal to create a captivating exploration of identity. Through large-format works that invite viewers on a fairytale-like journey, the artist delves into the complex relationship between past and present, revealing how our histories shape our perceptions of self and connection. The exhibit is in the Main Art Gallery till March 19.
