Laura Hamje  
At the Beach:  Mirrors & Reflections of the Subconscious
 
We are excited to present two solo exhibitions in September. In our south gallery space, we welcome back Laura Hamje and her dynamic oil paintings. She brings a powerful new collection inspired by living on the water's edge and the simple yet profound power of beauty and introspect it provides. About the series she shares:  "Certain landscapes invoke specific states of mind. Images from the beach are meditations on the connection between matter and air - the line between sky and earth become blurred by ocean waters. It is a place with no divisions and the interconnectedness of all things is omnipresent." Her gestural use of brush stroke adds dimension and drama to what is already sacredly profound. The exhibition will be on view through October 7.
 
Deb Stoner
Natural Wonders
 
We are thrilled to host a solo exhibition of new photographic prints by Deb Stoner within our front gallery. Stoner, known for her elegant botanical still life photography reminiscent of the great Dutch master’s paintings, brings a new series of prints. Her photographs, rich in color, texture and plant life along with the occasional insect or two, tucked into the composition showcase a vast array of plant life found in her own garden and the gardens of friends and colleagues. These close-up images bring an astonishing view of petal, leaf and velvety stipe inviting the viewer into the world of botany. The exhibition will be on view through October 7.
