Join us on Thursday, June 4 from 5-7 pm for the Member Preview of our upcoming exhibitions Rooted in Place and Embodied.

Rooted in Place

Kathryn Keller | June 5 - September 19 | Commons Gallery

Rooted In Place showcases oil and watercolor landscapes and interior scenes by Louisiana-based artist Kathryn Keller. Known for her southern landscapes, Keller most often illustrates scenes of her home, Inglewood Farm in Alexandria, Louisiana. Painting almost exclusively from life, Keller’s work captures both her physical surroundings and the energy of her working environment. Rooted in Place features a combination of large-scale oil landscapes of Keller’s farm across seasons, as well as softer watercolors depicting the interior of her home.

Embodied: The Power of Presence

Suzanne Scott Constantine & Lynne Scott Constantine June 5 - September 19 | West Wing Gallery

Embodied: The Power of Presence features the work of Outer Banks, NC-based artists Lynne Scott Constantine and Suzanne Scott Constantine. Through a combination of mixed media and interactive artwork, the artists invite visitors to investigate the idea of “embodiment” by thinking deeply about what living in your body at this particular moment feels like to you, and what it might predict for tomorrow. The various bodies on display in this exhibition represent stories, metaphors, and evocations of an interconnected space of creative thought. In the artists’ words, "The way we, as women artists, present these stories connects us to a tradition of women artists who step outside of classic figuration: surrealists, icon makers, craftswomen, visionaries."
