Lynne Harlow: Time Is a Healer

February 11 – March 11, 2023

The gallery is pleased to present a new exhibition by Lynne Harlow entitled Time is a Healer. This exhibition is a new group of works that combines the formal elegance of geometric abstraction with the sensual allure of varied material surfaces. Stable, symmetrical right triangles are presented through the material expressiveness of glass, felt, paint, aluminum chain, and Plexiglas to explore the intersection of grief and gratitude. Each work explores the beautiful contradiction of engaging messy, amorphous experiences through a language of reductive hard-edge abstraction.

Lynne Harlow (b.1968 Attleboro, MA) is an artist who creates two and three dimensional works that address interactions of color, light, and space.
