Jan. 3-18 Linda Laino: “Four Takes + Anatomies”
November 11, 2025 by admin
Opening reception: Jan 3, 7-10pm
Presenting excerpts from two related series, “Four Takes” and “Anatomies”, Linda Laino combines her love of form, nature, pattern and repetition in mixed media paintings that she likens to visual poetry. A writer as well as a visual artist, Laino was influenced by language from a young age, and moves between painting and writing in search of the connections and crossover. Her work explores the poetic potential of images and often uses her own text as source material in search of a vivid experience.
