SUMMARY:Art: Radiant Flow
DESCRIPTION:Bringing together three distinct voices\, “Radiant Flow” celebrates the movement between nature\, tradition\, and modern expression. This exhibition explores how light and energy transition across different surfaces. Patty MacHalec’s plein-air style multimedia canvases display a classic depth. The organic\, three-dimensional curves of Kristen Treuting’s gourds are stained with ornamental motifs. Jane Johnson’s contemporary paintings vibrantly capture the fluid\, ever-changing nature of the world around us. Together\, these artists invite you to witness the “flow” that connects the tactile world with the human spirit. Please visit the website for ticketing details.
