Beth Barry: The Interior Horizon
Solo Exhibition |October 2-31
Opening Reception|Friday, October 2, 5-7 PM
Beth Barry’s paintings explore the natural world through expressive color, shifting light, and movement. The Interior Horizon brings together recent work that moves beyond familiar landscape views to evoke the wonder, emotion, and sense of possibility found in nature.
Born in New Bedford, Barry now lives and works between New York City and East Hampton. This exhibition marks a homecoming to the SouthCoast, where the coastal light and open horizons of her childhood first shaped her way of seeing.
