Hammond Museum Fall Exhibitions Opening Reception
"Fang" by Meg Hitchcock features groupings of oddly shaped boxes, either painted or constructed, with reverse perspective that places the vanishing point on the viewer. This subtle shift in one-point perspective is inspired by Byzantine icon painters, who used this and other techniques to enhance the experience of devotion. Light and shadow create beguiling passages that are either painted, actual, or both.
"Poetry of Place" by Soli Pierce in the Hammond Museum’s Tea Hut creates an intimate dialogue between art and nature. The artist’s site-specific installation of artworks inspired by the Hammond’s Japanese Stroll Garden echoes the swaying bamboo, majestic trees, and changing seasons found just beyond the Tea Hut.
