Opening of Quiet Resilience: Mary Jane Mansfield

Join us for the opening of QUIET RESILIENCE, an immersive solo exhibition by former Resident Artist Mary Jane Mansfield.

Mary Jane Mansfield’s solo exhibition features a lyrical collection of electric water sculpture, painting, drawing, and projection created and curated around the idea of resilience.

The metaphor of being lost at sea comes into play, setting the stage for an ocean of sorrow too vast to navigate. The imagery, both abstract and literal, that has emerged from it taps into a deeply emotional space occupied by the struggles one faces when processing profound grief. Confronting powerful, unpredictable forces and the unexpected ways the universe is here to carry us through emerges, pointing to the source of energy that fuels resilience.
