Mute Eloquence of Light
Janet Read
Quest Upper Gallery
June 20th - August 9th, 2025
While walking the land, I am the pen on the paper; while drawing this map, my pen is myself walking the land… [to try to] keep faith with reality. – Tim Robinson
Mute Eloquence of Light: Arctic works by artist Janet Read consist of abstract paintings on linen and panels in oil and acrylic, and hybrid drawings/paintings on duralar. This body of work began with travels in the high Arctic in 2018 and a return in the fall of 2023. Using improvisation and spontaneous mark making, Read visualizes the processes of wind and water as internally mediated personal experiences of the high arctic in Canada and the west coast of Greenland. These works extend earlier themes initiated by residencies in Newfoundland and western Ireland.
Opening Reception: Friday, June 20th, 2025 (7:00 PM - 9:00 PM)
Fluidity
Ingrid Lupp
Quest Upper Gallery
June 20th - August 9th, 2025
Glass to me is a medium of perpetual transformation. With a science background, I am fascinated by the fact that glass can be a solid or liquid material, which inspires my own artistic journey, combining chemistry with creative exploration. In my kiln-formed works, I use heat to form pieces that are both functional and sculptural. The movement that occurs during heating creates a canvas with endless possibilities. I am drawn to blues, greens, purples and cranberry because they remind me of water and nature, where endless colour combinations occur naturally. It allows me to express my Estonian background, where the flag’s colours blue, black and white symbolize sky, ground and water. Each piece I make represents a moment captured in glass in its transformation between solid and liquid and back to solid, allowing endless creativity.
