Divine Cosmos
Works by Jill Harrington Nichols Connecticut Artist, Painter
October 24 – December 8, 2024
Connecticut artist, Jill Harrington Nichols, will close the Clare Gallery’s 2024 season, which was focused on the environment, with Divine Cosmos. The exhibition celebrates the heart, soul, and beauty that connects us all. Lyrical compositions of color and light transcribe the visible and invisible, the unseen, the other, the divine in all things. Two of the paintings have been printed, as archival prints, and are installed in the Vatican Observatory Museum.
Artist Talk and Reception: Sunday, October 27
Artist Talk 12:30 – 1:30 p.m.
Reception 1:30 – 3 p.m.
