Curated and organized by Claudia Rousseau, Ph.D., AICA – art critic and art historian, the exhibit “Nature’s Elements: Beauty and Structure” opens this Friday at Artery Plaza Gallery, featuring the paintings of Freya Grand and sculpture by Michael Enn Sirvet.
Freya Grand’s landscape paintings express a deep attachment to the fundamental structures of nature rather than a description of its surface details. As a structural engineer by training and experience, Michael Enn Sirvet brings his understanding of physics and structure to create exquisitely crafted wood and metal works. Both artists’ work encourage contemplation of the relation between art and nature.
