East Wing Gallery at MWCC showcases Art of Megan Marden and Amanda Millis
Mount Wachusett Community College is showcasing recent works of Megan Marden and Amanda Millis until December 6th. There will be a final day of the exhibit reception on Saturday, December 6th from noon until 2pm. Gallery Hours are Monday through Thursday from 8am to 8pm, Friday 8am to 5pm and also during Theatre at the Mount performances.
MWCC released this statement from Megan Marden: ““I build paintings from direct observation, found images, and constructed setups. The paintings are grounded in perception but pushed by memory, revision, and a refusal to accept an easy read. As soon as I establish a sense of space, I scrape, repaint, veil, or otherwise disrupt it, then try to uncover it anew. This repeats until the image feels inevitable without being closed.”
MWCC released this statement from Amanda Millis: ““There are moments when light, or the intensity of a moment stop me — the impossible glow of the blue hour, the shifting shape of light across a curtain, the way a familiar room suddenly feels strange. My paintings are a meeting place between inner and outer worlds, where perception, memory, and feeling converge. I return to certain motifs over time, observing how light and the passage of time change both my seeing and understanding.”
