Lyman Allyn Museum celebrates the work of local artist Jac Lahav with a new exhibition
In Lyman Allyn Art Museum’s newest exhibition, artist Jac Lahav works with immersive vining sculptures and abstract painting that intertwine the themes of fostering and the nurturing power of plants. Through vibrant blue installations that envelop and beguile, Lahav encourages viewers to explore the complex layers of human connection and growth. The exhibition opens Saturday, August 26 and runs through December 3.
Lahav’s foster series consists of over 40 abstract paintings on velvet. Reminiscent of gems, each painting represents a phone call the artist has received about a child in need during their last two years as a licensed foster parent.
Capturing the raw essence of their experience as a foster parent, each canvas serves as a poignant testimony, delving into the conceptual intricacies of familial bonds and the profound impact of nurturing love. Complementing these captivating artworks is an expansive branching installation taking root throughout the Hazlewood gallery, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the transformative power of nature’s embrace.
Lahav’s artistic vision intertwines multiple realms, shedding light on the interconnectedness of human relationships, the surface quality of painting, and the resilience found in the natural world.
