Opening Reception:
6-8 p.m., Friday, April 19
Organized by AMSET, this exhibition explores a time with 18th – 19th century French sensibilities: horse drawn carriages, decorated walls, and sumptuous colors. Chandler’s work has a gestural quality and playfulness emphasized by her delicate colored palette. The loose application of paint and palette are juxtaposed with the content of Chandler’s work. She illustrates a world that she believes to have been lost; the slower pace of the past, the style and ornaments, as well as the animals that have since disappeared.
