Lenore Thomas - "Force of Invention: the Sublime Worlds of Lenore Thomas, Sarah Smelser and Karen Kunc"



November 16 - December 14, 2012

Opening reception: Friday, November 16, 7:00 to 9:00 pm

In the world of visual art, invention is paramount. Invention creates and ex-­ tends tradition, forcing both artist and viewer beyond the known. Through a process of imagination and experimentation, practice and mastery, invention offers us new ways to look at the worlds we live in, and to ex-­ press our reactions to the experience of being human.

Lenore Thomas, Sarah Smelser, and Karen Kunc each create sublime, inventive worlds, worlds of luminous color, whimsy, and occaisional dark undertones. Each responds directly and differently to the forms of nature, to the spaces and places in which we live, to the phenomenon of light, and to the need to find order in it all.
