The Art Center and the NHAA proudly present “Interstices,”
The Art Center and the NHAA proudly present “Interstices,” a solo exhibition by artist Jennica LeSiege. This captivating collection, inspired by the textures and histories of abandoned buildings, will be on display through the end of April. The public is invited to an artist reception on Saturday, April 5, from 6 to 9 PM, where guests can meet Jennica and gain insight into her creative process.
There is beauty in disintegration. Time-worn walls and crumbling structures bear witness to history, holding within their surfaces a silent narrative. Jennica LeSiege captures these remnants through her art, revealing the depth and character of forgotten spaces. Each painting in “Interstices” is a tribute to the wisdom and resilience found in decay.
“Dilapidated walls and buildings inspire My Interstices Collection. To me, every abandoned structure has a story. The peeling paint and the crumbling bricks have a unique texture and character. I think about all these places I have seen over the decades and am inspired to capture their essence.
Using primarily acrylics, I build layers of paint, sometimes incorporating collage materials and unusual textures such as sand, window screens, or eggshells. My process involves mark-making tools, palette knives, and sharp graphite pencils to enhance the depth and tactile quality of the surface. I extend these layers over the edges of the canvas to create a seamless illusion, inviting viewers to experience the artwork not just visually but almost physically. Through this collection, I hope to share my appreciation for the beauty in disintegration.”
Experience the captivating exhibition Interstices at The Art Center, where raw, intricate beauty comes to life. This exhibition is open to the public daily through the end of April, with all artwork available for purchase. Visit the gallery Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 6 PM and Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM.
