“In an era of increasing disconnection from the natural world, birds remain among our most intimate wild companions. We find them in our cites and farmlands, in the deepest forest and hottest desserts, on snow mountains and out on the open ocean waters. The occupy a unique position in our collection consciousness.”

“Flock” a group show curated by Morgan Cameron features vast, beautiful range of styles and depictions around the theme of birds, with over 20 artists on display through February 7th at our Falmouth location.

“Flock” on display through February 7th, examines our profound relationship with bird through the lens of contemporary artistic practice. Curated by our very own Morgan Cameron ~ an incredibly fascinating group exhibit.

“Birds are simultaneously commonplace and miraculous-creatures we encounter daily, yet whose capacity for flight continues to inspire wonder.”

“Where traditional landscape painting often invited entry through a meandering path or opening, these compositions resist approach. This deliberate inaccessibility echoes the condition of longing itself- a vision of paradise glimpsed, but never reached.”

“These islands become metaphors for distance and return, isolation and hope. Bathed in hard light and stillness, they suggest worlds untouched, yet entirely constructed. In this sense, Under a Swift Sunrise is less about arrival than about the yearning to arrive: to glimpse, if only momentarily, a far green country that exists somewhere between what is remembered and what is imagined.”
