The popular Art in Focus lecture series will continue in person on Monday, July 25, at 10am. Join artist, Kerri Mommer, for a gallery tour of her exhibit, "Land, Trees, Sky: Modern Landscapes," featured in the Atrium Gallery at The Center for Visual & Performing Arts. Kerri is debuting this series in her first solo show at South Shore Arts.
Art in Focus is a free event for adult learners of all ages who are interested in the arts and its impact on our world, past, present, and future. Kerri hopes that her modern landscapes, provoke thoughtfulness, fresh ideas, and new ways of looking at things.
Kerri Mommer’s “Trees, Land, Sky” is a collection of new landscapes exploring her inspiration and insights of the natural world. During the past few years, Mommer has taken to hiking outdoors in order to immerse herself in the wellspring of the natural world. Longing for fresh air and nature especially through the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, the artist found her inspiration. Is there a better source of inspiration than that of nature? Ever-changing, a constant unbroken cycle of life, death, and rebirth amongst the land and trees. To look at a sky constantly moving, the face of which is different each day. The world is moving, and Kerri is observing. Whether that observation takes place through the lens of a camera or the brushstroke of a paintbrush, Kerri’s work has been informed by her keen eyes, and through their recordings crafted into her new body of work.
