This exhibit exposes and explores structures that are found in the natural world, as well as the world of imagination. Jessica Mongeon documents her hikes through mountain terrain, aggregating multiple experiences into large-scale India ink and acrylic paintings on paper. By building up calligraphic marks, along with larger strokes of color, she creates a space that speaks to her journeys though the veil of time, distance and action.
