February 7 – March 2, 2025
Reception: Friday, February 7, 7-9:30 pm
Emerging Hamilton-based contemporary realist artist, Jill Letten, will be bringing new paintings for her first Carnegie Gallery solo exhibition. This exhibition features acrylic paintings on wood panel which use sourced images from the library public domain as reference. The layering of images from bygone eras creates a complexity of colour and form, situating pockets of abstraction within a realistic representation. These layered visuals confront the parallels between past and present, scrutinizing the romanticized narratives surrounding the perception of historical prosperity.
