Colorful memories
The gallery says that Cirioni's abstract artwork, inspired by her garden and using natural tones and shapes, is paired with the documentary photography of Harasimowicz. Ms. Cirioni lives in Stow, Mass.
Against the world
The artist, who is also an engineer, writes on her site:
“My poetic abstractions spring both from meditations on nature and from memories that are distilled into single dramatic moments. The energetic surfaces imply an ongoing tension between freedom and containment, edging the viewer closer to that place where chaos can erupt into clarity. The color white suggests notions of purity and simplicity, and unifies the disparate objects. The deliberate juxtapositions of forms and exaggerations of color choices, provide clues to content and interpretation.’’
