When was the last time you stepped into a forest? Often pitched as a silent, near-mythic retreat from the bustle of modern life, to walk in the woods is to realize you’ve entered a space brimming with life. In this free, focus exhibition, the artists reveal various ways to interact with the forest, based on season or purpose for entering.
From minuscule artworks to giant works on canvas, A Walk in the Woods provides just that: a guided walk through an ever-changing, seasonal forest, complete with moments of wonder and surprise.
This free, focus exhibition provides a guided walk through an ever-changing, seasonal forest by artists who love, analyze, or retreat to the woods.
