Environments of Texture and Motion by Ruth Kapcia

August 1-31

Opening: 1st Thursday Art Walk, August 1, 5-8pm

Ruth Kapcia’s abstract oil pastels represent reinterpretations of familiar images of landscape and architectural environments, exploring the dynamics between colors, textures, and patterns with a tactile, 3D approach.

Kapcia’s tone can be whimsical or moody, using a varied color palette and diverse mark-making to reference several influences from the general to the specific—often in the same piece. Her work is intended to provoke the audience into developing their own interpretations of what they see—and what the imagery may signify—rather than having a specific viewpoint dictated by the artist.

Some works may be self-explanatory with a clear inspiration indicated in the title, while others can be left to the imagination of the viewer.
