Reclamation 1987 by Conor Mulligan
April 10 – June 7, 2026
Reception: Friday, April 17, 6–8 pm
These works represent a return to myself. Each painting is a result of being present with the wounds of abandoning oneself to fit into the life of another. These works are a meditation, more a result of a process than of a vision, an expression of mood rather than the representation of forms. Each painting an emotional landscape.
Garden of Dreams by Laura Howell

Reception: Friday, June 12, 6–8 pm
Through abstraction, the artist uses a combination of shapes, movement, and riotous color to express the beauty and randomness of gardens and the many environments in which they exist.
