Luma Undertones: Illuminating Nature's Essence

Anastasia Kimmett + Madeleine Lamont

Artist Reception May 2nd, 5-7pm / Show May 2 - 18

This show explores the subtle interplay between light and nature through the eyes of two distinct yet complementary Canadian artists, Madeleine Lamont and Anastasia Kimmett. Both artists invite viewers to engage deeply with the natural world, revealing hidden details often overlooked in everyday life. Lamont’s botanical oil paintings capture the delicate textures and shifting light of plant forms, while Kimmett’s mixed media works deconstruct and reassemble nature’s landscapes, uncovering the layered complexities beneath the surface. Together, they create an immersive dialogue about how light reveals and transforms the essence of nature, encouraging reflection on the quiet, often unnoticed undertones that shape our perception of the world around us.

  • Anastasia Kimmett

    Anastasia reveals a distinct perspective of the natural world and pays tribute to the technology that has allowed her to capture worlds of her own design. For this collection, she leans on her surroundings in the Pacific Northwest which are both expansive and intimate.

    "The mountains and trees aren't just visual elements but serve as the foundational tone in the atmosphere. Like background music, the nature here is more than just a setting, it is a visual score, underpinning an integral part of the emotional undercurrent for those of us lucky enough to call this part of the world home."

    "The Garden Document: A Meditation on the Intersection of Nature and Spirit."

    The garden, throughout history and literature, has often served as a metaphor for the complexities of existence, offering a lens through which we can explore the merging of the physical, metaphysical, and psychological realms. It is a place where the dual forces of growth and decay are in constant tension, mirroring the transient nature of life itself. Nature becomes both a reflection of the human spirit and an arena for introspective contemplation.
