Where: Toomey Lobby 

Artist: Julia Schwadron Marianelli

Painter Julia Schwadron Marianelli presents “Future Garden,” a gesture of admiration for what plants do so well and humans could do better. By layering and weaving text through features of the natural landscape, the compositions become a site to contend with the alchemy between people and other living elements of their environment. The works celebrate a parallel potential to survive, mutate, breathe, produce, feed, make energy, and be wild. 

"I look for ways to translate the relationship between the internal landscape of my mind and the external landscape that surrounds it. I point to the intersection of these dimensions through layers that create a vibration. I imagine my paintings as records of exploration but also as opportunities for the viewer to experience a collapsing of boundaries between internal and external worlds."
