MORE THAN A FEELING
Abstraction & Connection in an Insensible World
Paintings by Jacqueline Evans
Exhibition Curator: Ruth Greene-McNally

On view January 17 – March 16, 2025
Opening reception January 17 from 5:30-7 p.m.

Growing up near Scranton, Pennsylvania, Jacqueline Evans earned a BFA in Fine Arts from the Pennsylvania College of Art & Design in Lancaster. A painter, photographer, and web designer, Evans is owner and Principle designer at Art Street Design Studio. She has exhibited her work widely throughout Pennsylvania, New York, and Vermont, including at the Southern Vermont Arts Center and Canal Street Art Gallery in Bellows Falls. She lives with her wife Anita Reber in Bennington, Vermont.

Abstract art can take on other-worldly characteristics and while it is true that many painters see abstract expression as spiritual or transcendent; Jacqueline Evans views the physical world as a place of belongings left behind. In an era given to redefining belonging and cultural contexts in broader, inclusive terms, abstraction in any format is a reliable avenue of exchange and fluency across the quotidian. The eye does not require symbols or portrayals to feel drawn in and connected. Portal to the mind, the eye is capable of unfathomable understanding.
