Girl in Owl Mask, by Zoe Thomas, whose work is on exhibit at Haven Gallery in Northport Village through August 14.
FEATURED:
Zoe Thomas, Reflections and Dreams
Through August 14
Haven Gallery, 50 Main Street, Northport
Haven Gallery presents “Reflections and Dreams,” a solo exhibition of new sculptures by UK based artist Zoe Thomas. This is Thomas’ second solo show at the gallery and features nine clay sculpted dolls that surrealistically merge the world of humans with the animal kingdom. Serenely painted faces are embraced by wings, an owl mask or an entire animal ensemble. Humanity peacefully co-exists with animals in the souls of Thomas’ dolls as they exude a sense of tranquility and peace – a reminder of our natural roots and the undoubted connection of all living things.
“Reflections and Dreams” is just one of five exhibitions currently running at Haven Gallery. To view all five exhibits, click here.
