Opening Reception: Saturday May 14, 2016, 6 pm–9 pm
Exhibition Dates: May 14 – June 4, 2016
Modern Eden Gallery is pleased to present “Escape”, the latest solo exhibition of new works by gallery artist Lacey Bryant. This ambitious new body of work includes painting done in anticipation of, and during an artist’s residency at Chalk Hill in Healdsburg, CA, where Lacey escapes from her downtown San Jose studio into the Sonoma outdoors to work en plein aire. These new works reflect on the desire to run away and search for freedom, to a place where nostalgic twilight and silent country landscapes beckon our Escape.
Lacey Bryant lives in the SF bay area where she paints almost every day. Her expressive oil paintings capture haunting narratives between her subjects. Characters inhabit a realm of strange, nostalgic sweetness with undercurrents of darkness and mystery. When Lacey isn’t painting, she likes to go hiking, knit, play with her cat, Hecubus and eat cupcakes.
The opening reception for ‘Escape’ will be held at Modern Eden Gallery on Saturday, May 14, 2016 from 6 pm–9 pm. The artist will be in attendance at the reception. The exhibition will be on display through June 4, 2016 and is free and open to the public.
